Hi All,
after returning to civilization from 4 weeks cruising the St. Blas
Islands in Panama I got a couple of observations:
First of all thank you very much KB2PNM for getting the 20 meter
Antenna up and running again. After that PSKmail worked like a charm-
as always. Thanks a million Robert, you are great!!!

Ok, back to business:
1. I realized that a sent mail folder in jPSKmail would be a fantastic
addition. In lengthy conversations you might forget what you allready
told the mail recipient, so having a "Sent Mail Folder" where you
could look up your allready sent mail would be great.

2. I had a chance to see the airmail program in action on the yacht of
a friend of ours. What I liked very much was the build in propagation
prediction program. The serverlist allso contains the Position of the
servers as well as the frequencies. So you got a display of the
propagation conditions between your location and the servers
instantly. This would be a great addition for PSKmail I think.
However, I realize that this is a huge effort and would probably take
a while to implement- In the meantime- does anybody got VOACAP (Linux
propagation prediction program) to work on Debian (prefeerably with a
graphical frontend)?
Thank you very much in advance,
Christian DL3ZFC
