Three hams purchase HRD suite source and rights
Mike Carper WA9PIE, Randy Gawtry K0CBH and Rick Ruhl W4PC have acquired 
the source and rights to the Ham Radio Deluxe suite of software. The 
trio plans to continue the improving the best ham radio package available.

“Simon has done a fantastic job with this software. His vision for 
integrating rig control, rotor control, logging, digital modes, and 
satellite operations into a single integrated feature-rich software 
suite has captivated the ham radio community. We’d like to see this 
product continue in a way that respects the hard work put into this 
package by Simon and others,” said Mike Carper. “Maintaining that 
vision, while delivering timely fixes and feature enhancements in the 
future, will be the number one priority.”

“After many years writing the HRD software it’s necessary to take a 
break and hand the whole project over to another team,” said Simon Brown 
(HB9DRV). “The support effort required has become more than I can 
realistically manage – with many thousands of users, new radios and 
other hardware appearing all the time and unexpected changes to the 
infrastructure used by HRD such as QRZ.com I no longer have any time at 
all for other projects. As some of you will know I have formed a company 
SDR-RADIO.com GmbH and am now working in the Software Defined Radio 
arena with RFspace. This is the technology of the future; a future which 
I want a part of. In 2012 I plan to return to England and get back on 
the air, something I haven’t done much during the last 25 years.”

The trio is in the process of building a development environment for HRD 
and plans to begin by addressing some of the bugs in the existing “To Do 
List” for an upcoming 5.1 release. The 5.1 release will be made 
available at no charge to registered users when completed.

All three principals have more than 25 years of experience with radio 
data communications. Rick Ruhl is the president of W4PC Software, Inc. 
whose products include the PakRatt, PKTerm and Radio Operations Center 
software suites. Randy Gawtry is the president of Timewave Technology 
Inc. whose products include the PK and DSP families of data controllers 
and other commercial data products. Mike Carper is an experienced 
Fortune 500 technology executive, educator, and featured speaker in the 
areas of wireless technologies and IT Service Management.
