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
KPC/KAM and AtariTM

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.

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.
