John Wiseman

John Wiseman is an independent developer whose compact catalog centers on QtTermTCP, a lightweight terminal application purpose-built for radio amateurs who operate BPQ32 packet nodes. The program opens a TCP/IP channel between a distant user and a home bpq32 stack, letting operators read bulletins, inspect routes, and forward mail from any Windows desktop without tying up a local TNC. Typical deployments include laptop-based field stations that tunnel back to a clubhouse node, emergency teams that need resilient message gateways, and experimenters who chain multiple BPQ32 instances across the Internet to extend AX.25 reach. Because QtTermTCP speaks the same BPQ-console protocol that the node exposes on its LAN side, it slips transparently into existing setups: no extra open ports, no static VPN, just a single encrypted TCP session that carries full-color diagnostic screens, monitor streams, and SuperBaycom-style chat frames. The executable is self-contained, so it can run portably from a USB stick or be scripted to autostart with pre-filled host credentials. Although the portfolio is presently limited to this one connectivity tool, its narrow focus has earned it a loyal following among HF/VHF digital enthusiasts who value low-latency keyboard access to their home stacks. John Wiseman’s software is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are pulled through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always deliver the latest release, and can be queued for batch installation alongside other applications.
