amateur-radio protocol suite using a soundcard as a modem

hf is a soundcard digimode program which can monitor and transmit PACTOR I, AMTOR, GTOR and RTTY. It is based on hfkernel by Tom Sailer, with a gtk+ graphical interface, spectrum display, logbook and textmacros.

The package provides hfkernel, which needs to be run as root and hfterm, which communicates with hfkernel through a UNIX domain socket.

Most of this software is still beta quality, which means it can hang your computer. Be sure to join the hfterm-hackers mailing list if you use this package: http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hfterm-hackers.

Hf does not run with every soundcard, because it uses the mmap() system call (for low latencies, needed for real time mode in Pactor and Amtor ARQ), which is not supported by some cards.
