No, they arent scam artists. They are, unfortunately, typical of the
cottage ham-radio industry. Ham Radio products are but a miniscule fraction
of their other products ( as well as much less profitable, if at all) and so
it gets religated to the back burner and customer support suffers as well.
CT contest software is in this same boat with the same group of people, and
it's considered by some (myself included) to be the "best" contest software
out there, at least for the "big" contests.
Packetcluser tm software is widely accepted in the US as the premier
packet spotting network software. Pavillion has been around for years...
There is a Packetcluster network that extends from the mid-Atlantic all the
way up into Canada when all the links are working and it gets heavily used...
it even has an internet link somewhere.
