[ubuntu-uk] Ham Radio Fldigi

[davisjo]

Morning All,

                 I have down loaded the Fldigi program from a web site. This is a digital radio decoder for radio hams. The file is a bin.tar.gz file, now resident on my desktop.

I have unzipped it using the tar -xvzf filename bin tar .gz

I have used the cd filename and the ./configure, make , sudo make install, mostly the response is this is not a directory. I am sorry for not giving you the actual response as the computer is in the radio shack at another location and there is no printer attached.
My desktop is "john at john/Desktop, obviously I am not entering the correct file string. Can some one help me with the dialogue I need to enter.

I have also downloaded some amateur radio stuff using synaptic, now I cannot find the downloads. What do I have to do to install and create a desktop icon ?
I am sorry to be so demanding but this is the area I do not understand properly.

Many thanks for any help,

John Davis
