There are a few on CIS's HAMNET Forum including a grid squares program, an satellite tracking program (2 different ones), and numerous programs related to packet radio including TCP/IP and some terminal software designed to work with the Kantronics TNC. Of course they are many IBM programs out there that will run on the Amiga using either Transformer or the Bridgecard (depending on the model machine you have). 73, Paul WA1OMM
