MAny Ham Radio Radio operators use software to control there TNC's (terminal node controller) A device which interfaces the radio to the computer. Most TNC software is cheap and readily available through Ham outlets ( try Amatuer Electronic Supply ) they have 800 numbers in several cities, but I dont have the numbers handy. THese programs have several modes usually including a fax mode. I have used mine to receive weather fax. Also schedules and frequencies can be found in Ocean Voyager ( annually issued bu Ocean Navigator Magazine) P/C Jim Herz, FC WA2JQI S/V Ragtime
