Something to consider for older programs is the compatibility mode in WIN7.
Right click on an icon, then Properties, and then Compatibility.  There is a
drop-down box which will allow you to pick the version of Windows, and even
service pack, going back to WIN95.

I find that WIN7 works fine as-is for most programs, but I have a couple of
truly ancient non-ham utilities which were written for WIN98SE.  They
worked, with limitations, on XP, but work fully again since I have WIN98
selected.

I have WIN7 32-bit, so I don't know if a 64-bit version offers any 32-bit
compatibility variations.   Guessing not, but???

I have run up against this.. if it ain't 32-bit in the first place, it
won't work in Win7 64-bit.. older programs like my Uni_Trac interface
software would simply not run on my new rootin scootin Win7 machine, and
I ended up dedicating my old box strictly for running the Uni_Trac...

Isn't it something that virtual machine should take care of? Even if the
underlying Windows 7 was installed as 64 bit.

I have had success with the FUNcube - SatPC32 project. I finally have
a combination of stuff that works for me. Here is a collection of
notes on what works in my shack. Like most things there are lots of
different ways of doing this. I make no claim that this is the best.
Who knows it might be the worst.

Tried it, no luck. Easier to keep using the old machine stand alone.

In the case of my Uni_Trac 2000 interface, I tried it, but no luck.
Easier to keep using the old machine stand alone.

Duchifat-1 is an experimental and educational spacecraft developed and built
by young Israeli students at the Space Laboratory of the Herzliya Science
Centre (HSC).

It features APRS on 145.825 MHz and also a UHF/VHF BSPK transceiver that can
operate as a FM to DSB transponder.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Possible CO96 Operations
Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I'll be flying to CO96 Wednesday of next week and will be returning on
Friday.  If time permits, I  will try to be on AO-27 and SO-50 as I'll
be taking my FT-817ND and my Arrow Yagi..  FO-29 is also a possibility
but only in half-duplex.

I will try to work any passes from about 1800 - 2100 UTC Wednesday and
Friday but I won't try on Thursday as I have a prior commitment that
day.

If I do try to work an FO-29 pass, I'll be operating my radio
manually, transmitting on 145.930 MHz and tuning my downlink around
435.855.  Longer calls would be appreciated as I might not hear your
callsign and/or grid square right away.

Because of the reason for my trip, I can't guarantee that I will work
any passes.  I plan on going to CO96 at least once more later this
year so I might have a better opportunity then.
