<div><br></div>Tony, you are correct although just because Microsoft doesn't 
support Windows 7 doesn't mean a program can't still work on Windows 7. there 
are a lot of hams I know that are still using Win-7 like I am and it runs very 
stable for all my applications except Chirp-Next. So now I have to use the older 
version of Chirp and am forced to get a newer machine with Windows 10 or 11 just 
to use the Next version of Chirp. Then I have to reinstall all the other 
programs onto the new machine. We hams are cheap and/or live on a fixed income. 
Look at the majority of hams. I do like the fact there is a new version of 
Chirp, I just wish I could use it on my machine. i was even tempted to send in a 
donation until I found out I couldn't use it. Like I said, I do wish it would 
have been more apparent that the new next version of Chirp will not run on 
Win-7.<br><br><br>
