Ham-fisted: Chap's radio app killed remotely after posting bad review

Crapware

Ham Radio Deluxe (or HRD) was a cracking piece of software till Simon Brown HB9DRV sold it to these muppets, who "monetized" it. I tried the paid for version and the majority of it stopped working properly. I was a pain in the arse to install from what I remember. I gave up and went back to the free version which is still kicking about on the interwebs which is still working flawlessly, even with my all singing and dancing Icom 7300 SDR box. (and yes I built my own fan dipole HF antenna)

Perhaps the worse thing is you have to continue to pay for upgrades and fixes. If you churn out crap at least make updates free. Without a doubt, HRD deserves a bad review.
