Happy New Year everyone.

HamSphere celebrates its one year anniversary.
And at the time of writing, HamSphere has 10049 members.

I recently released a new version 30 that includes manual volume and microphone levels.
You will find two new sliders to control both mic level and audio level.
This was necessary as many users found it difficult setting the correct microphone level.

The HamSphere band should be treated as a real shortwave band to avoid splatter.
When using digital modes, SSTV or CW on HamSphere, please keep the input level within the green bars.
Voice audio should be in the yellow and occasionally into the red. But please avoid feeding it constantly into the red.

Working different countries in HamSphere.
VE3JAR, Vic in Canada tells me that he has worked 50 countries on HamSphere. That is a true achievement, well done Vic!

In addition I would like to remind the users who participated in the latest contest to send their logs to:
