Good morning everybody. Chasing a ghost in the ether here. Found a simple, zero bells and whistles, software program that calculates the dimensions of framing members for various geometries, wood species and loadings. Stumbled upon it while googling engineered wood products for a ridge beam application, realized that it is perfect for present requirements and purchased it……using an air card. Regrouped, back at home base, at a later date and found no record, credit card or otherwise. Fell off the aircard cliff. Regoogled. No luck. Does this ring a bell with anybody? This sounded like a small company. The basic presentation of tables and diagrams would make a favorable impression on those among us who just want engineering data. Inexpensive program. Hundred dollar range. Thanks. Work safe.

what is an air card?
Welcome to the

Piffin, An aircard is a mobile phone card. Slides in the ,uh, slot there on my notebook and can tx/rx wherever there is at least a couple of bar's worth of mobile phone signal. Slow, but works where wireless can't be found, like offshore of Key West or moored to a dock somewhere. 30 bucks a month, flat fee, for the cheap service. The card itself costs 75-100 bucks.
