Lady Heather rund fine under Linux.  The shortcuts need changes,
notably eliminating baxckslashes in the KE5FX URL.

The .lnk entries on the Desktop don't seem to do anything useful so I 
delete them.


I check new versions of Linux to make sure something hasn't broken wine.
LH and HRD Rotator are the first programs I use.
