GM4JJJ Software
I have written a few bits of
software over the years for various computers ranging from
my original Acorn Atom, the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, the
Amstrad 6128, the Tandy CoCo, the Atari ST, the
NEC
PC-8201A laptop to the IBM PC and Apple
Macintosh.
Most have been written purely for my own use and enjoyment,
however a couple may be of interest to others.

FAX display using a KantronicsTM

This was actually a commercial
success, which suprised me a little because I only imagined
that a few people in the U.K. would have the same
combination of hardware as I had! It was written in
HiSoft's BASIC and then compiled.It was not until I
discovered that no-one else had produced any WEFAX software
for the Atari ST and Kantronics TNC that I decided to put
it on the market. It is now shareware because although I
still own the rights to it, I cannot support it since I no
longer have either an Atari ST or a KAM.
No, ST-WEFAX will not work with an AEA Packratt PK232 in
case you were wondering.
Requires a
Kantronics KPC
series TNC or Kantronics All Mode TNC (KAM) and a General
Coverage SSB Radio Receiver to display black & white
Weather Maps and Pictures sent over radio in the shortwave
and longwave bands.
Meteosat FAX
picture received on Longwave Radio with Kantronics KAM and
Atari ST Computer
Note
that this program will not decode APT pictures sent directly
from Satellites as they use a different form of modulation
to the FAX modes on H.F. Radio.
The program will work with any
Atari ST Computer and either a Hi Res or
Medium Resolution Monitor.
