there is no need to run an extra virtual maschine on linux/unix to have a windows-program running. the magic is called "wine" and let's say 99.9% of windows-applications can be run on ux*
wsjt-x and gridtracker are both available as linux programs. all the logging stuff works completely as you know from windows

True words Glenn...
I run Opensuse Tumbleweed Linux as my daily driver and I agree. If someone wants to go Linux, even though there are ways to run things that are Windows applications in virtual machines or using WINE or Codeweavers Crossover, you are best off switching over to native Linux equivalents.
Honestly, if you are committed to HRD and it's only a Windows application, it is better and simpler to just stay with Windows. If you are open to change then welcome over to the light side and Linux. Windows applications under some adaption on Linux are possible. But they aren't going to be as reliable and as simple as they are under their native OS.
I'm a huge Linux proponent. But switching has to make sense for what you are doing with the OS.

Thanks to everyone who replied.? I will try out some of the ideas and let you know how it worked.

Guys,
I run all environments, however, most of my hamming today is run from Linux (Ubuntu and Mint).
Trying to leverage Wine is a non-starter for most - while I have gotten it to work in many cases, it was worse than staying on Windows. ?I have volunteered to beta HRD on Linux - I am not holding my breath.
Hit my QRZ page - listing of SW that I use.

Hi Adrian,
Can you provide specifics about what hamlib does not support. Maybe Mike can add these if they are not already in there.

That's right, I use linux Gridtracker2 which now has autoupdate (On all
OS)? alongside HRD under bottles, and linux wsjtx.
HRD provides a realiable radio interface for some radios that hamlib and
other 3rd party interfaces do not, supporting rig split? etc,
better without issue.
For macOS I compile my own wsjtx, but have also tried windows wsjtx
under crossover in MacOS with very good results.

Re: W1HKJ - url is redirected?
that would possibly suggest a shared IP at the host, but one on
port 80 and one on port 443

Fred,
?
Don't blame you.? I was basically in the same boat a few months ago.? I had run my ham hobby on a windows, XP, 7, 10, and 11 machines along with lots of automation, rotor programs, contest programs, etc, etc.? I had reached the end of what I was willing to put up with on Windows and decided to make the switch.?
?
I have not tried wine bottles or crossover as just mentioned.? Perhaps that is worth a try and maybe the best of both worlds.?
?
73,

GridTrracker will run natively on Linux. There is a Linux client for it already.
It runs great.
Same for Fldigi and it's family of apps. There are Linux versions.
