Would you like to test the next generation of software? Are you a person who loves the thought of being on the bleeding edge? Do you like to be ready for the next release so that you can mentor hams who are less adventurous? Then we have a deal for you. For the past 4 years the alpha test team has been a rather closed society and available by invitation only. In keeping with the GPL and the open source concept that fldigi developers strive to satisfy we are making the alpha test list a public forum.
You can sign up to receive email announcements of new alpha releases here: http://developer.berlios.de/projects/fldigi/, where you can also download the latest alpha source code tree.

Download
Download the binary for your operating system, a complete Puppy ISO (or Pets if you already have Puppy 4.1.2), or the source code. You may also download the complete help system in html or pdf format.Before downloading and trying to use this program you should take the time to read the Beginners Guide, the On-Line-Help or download the complete Help file web pages and study them. If you have been running a previous version you will have to configure the new version. You will find many new configurable items. Take time to read about the team and send them a word of thanks at either the linuxham or NBEMSham yahoo group. There are currently 4 principal developers and over 50 members of the test and support team.
Please try downloading the binary before attempting to compile and link the source code. The binary install is the preferred method. If you have post installation problems the authors and the support team will be able to support your requests much quicker. You will probably find that it runs on your system. It has been tested on several distributions including the latest revisions of Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Mandriva, Mandrake, SuSE, and Puppy Linux. The Linux binary is a staticly linked executable that only requires hamlib version 1.2.8.1 or greater on your system. The Windows download includes the fldigi / flarq executables and the single required dynamic link library. The Windows version of fldigi includes hamlib as an integral part of the program.
