The YCCC-2000 CD
The too-long-in-preparation "YCCC-2000" CD is now
available. Get a lot of neat club stuff, and help a good cause, for only
$15! Proceeds after expenses are used for sponsoring contest plaques in
YCCC's name.
Contents:
- Every back issue of the Scuttlebutt
- Issues 1-116 Sept 1977 - April 1995
scanned as JPGs
- Issues 117-145 June 1995 - Dec 1999 in Word/PDF
- Every Contest Cookbook, 1981-1999 in JPGs/Word/PDF
- All club rosters ever published
- An Article Index in both text and Excel formats
- A whole directory of ham Shareware
- PacketCluster maps as published in the 'Butt
- Viewing software
System Requirements:
A CD Reader. A shareware JPG viewer (LView) and Adobe Acrobat
are provided on the CD. Optional requirements include Excel97, if you
want to read the spreadsheet version of the index, and Word97, if you
want to read the Word versions of the Butt. JPGs can also be viewed
(and printed) with IE or Netscape, or any "Paint Shop"-type
program.
Pricing:
$15 - YCCC members only
Two ways to buy:
- At a club meeting.
- By mail from K1NU. Add $2 for S/H, send Len a check payable to him
to: Leonard Kay, 32 Bradley Road, Andover, MA 01810.
The CD will be updated yearly starting in 2001. The update will be
made available to all registered owners for a nominal price of $5. So
you only buy it once! Every year's update will contain the latest
issues and hopefully more features such as:
- All-time contest records
- A fancier integrated viewer/browser
- More shareware, perhaps "unlockable" production versions
of popular ham software titles
- Photos of members and/or stations
- ...and anything else you can think of.
Len always needs volunteers to help out with new features. All
members of the editorial staff get a free copy of the CD. Email K1NU at k1nu@mediaone.net
if interested.
