As with all of the previous versions of Roundup, v6.02.7 is Freeware. It may be redistributed in whole, not in part, free of charge. Roundup may not be sold separately or as part of any suite or package. Roundup is Copyright © 2002-2009 by Terrance R Long and all rights are reserved.

This version of Roundup includes user options for selecting State and County level NWS Warnings, user selectable radar thumbnails and hourly state weather roundups. The podcast player in Roundup does require the latest versions of Apple iTunes Quicktime and MicroSoft's DirectX. Both of these are free utilities and must be installed if you plan on using the player. The program installs in a "Roundup" folder on the root of C: You'll need proper rights and permissions to install the software on your machine and ample space for the program and any podcasts that you download. I would recommend a minimum of 1.5Gb of free space, however the bulk of that would be for any podcasts that you wish to keep and these can be stored an any drive accessible to the machine. The program, maps and flat files (exclusive of podcast video and audio) actually take up just 41Mb of space.

This version update contains a couple of behavioral changes in the program including: last profile display in the configuration screen and the programs acceptance of non-U.S. standard time formats. Also, underlying work is being done to increase the number of sources for podcasts and allowing users ability to set the frequency of podcast downloads and other, more interactive methods of sharing data with NWSFOs across the nation.
