CAM RADIO NET SOFTWARE
All programs listed for distribution are available to members for use. Distribution of these programs is not allowed without written consent from AUTHOR and WEBMASTER. All software distributed by CAM RADIO NET is Copyright and may not be duplicated for use in any other, with any other or in conjunction with another application beyond those as intended.

CAM RADIO INFO

(1) Now available to all visitors. You are free to install the software.
DAN QUIGLEY N7HQ has developed a program that we use to display members who are streaming.
          The member privilege includes receiving this program free of charge. However as a member you may use the program on any computer you have that supports the Cam radio Net and your stream. Members must agree not to share the program with non members. This was all Dan asked we do for his services. So we agree not to distribute Dan's program without written permission from N7HQ.
          The program requires only an Internet connection. The "program" receives DATABASE information from 2 separate servers that verifies the stream and tests your version. If the stream is present for any members on-line, the "program" then displays stream information on the "client" (your) computer. To execute, simply install and click on the "CAMRADIO INFO" desktop icon.
           Members should stream in 800 by 600 when possible and use Webcam 7 OBJECT EDITOR to display call sign and frequency information. Other stream images, video and desktop information can be displayed at your discretion. The Basic stream setting is 320 by 240.
           We now encourage higher definition as long as stream members are using a BROADBAND connection and they are running Webcam 7 as efficiently as possible.
             Dan's program significantly improves computer speed and makes the on page display very enjoyable. Simple mouse strokes can ZOOM display and even enlarge the image to FULL SCREEN. This program is fun and simple to use...This program does not require a WEB BROWSER.
          CAM RADIO INFO is a copyright of N7HQ and CAM RADIO NET and the distribution and/or use is only available through this website.
Members and visiting users may not distribute the program without written consent from N7HQ and K3HKR (both).

HRD STATUS PROGRAM

HRDstatus allows you to present your HAM RADIO DELUXE Ver 5.0 information to the WEB CAST STREAM.
