BV Version 7 - Download

BV Version 7 was designed for Windows 2000, XP and is a 32bit application. It works under Windows Vista, 7, 8 and 10 and needs to be run in XP Compatibility Mode. It is important to read and follow these instructions before you download. BV requires a BDE (Borland Database Engine) installation on your computer. BV will not run without the BDE! The BDE is a set of database drivers and includes an administration program. See the instructions below how to download and install the BDE.

Terms of use

BV7 is freeware. BV7 is provided "as is" to the ham radio community. I will not give any support in any form. I might read your e-mails and suggestions but I usually never answer them. With a few 10,000 hams worldwide using this software it would simply take too much of my time. Instead you will find useful support in the BV7 Mailing List.
