VarAC digital chatting on Amateur Radio seems to be getting more popular than JS8Call

Vara-HF screenshot showing at the bottom a green coloured waterfall of the spectrum with some smudges where the signal is represented. Above it are half-moon gauges showing Audio Input as -13 dB, a CPU usage one showing 15%, an AFC guage without a needle, and at S/N gauge showing -3.3 dB. This is all detail showing the radio connection signal stats.
This is at least apparent for what I’m observing in my country on the Southern tip of Africa. The reason seems to be that VarAC provides most of the functions that JS8Call already provides, and then provides a lot of usability improvements as well as transmitting images, documents, faster speed, VMails, etc.

I’ve been getting up to speed with it the last two days, and am really enjoying using it. I’ve documenting what it is about, how it compares with JS8Call, and some tips I’ve been learning, at the web page I’ve linked to in this post.
