Subject: Packet on FRS?

Well lets start with on amateur packet or any ham freqs you can't discuss
anything business related.  Nothing that can be business at all.  So if I
send a message to my friend that I work with and we talk about what we are
going to do the next day or about a stupid customer that can't get logged on
because they are using their password for their user name then we just broke
the law.  Chances of getting caught are slime to none but it is not legal.
Packet on FRS would be great.  We use it to talk about things all day long
and it would be nice to be able to send messages that the casual listener
would not get.  Are the scramblers legal?

  I think you would be OK.  You can't use the Ham frequencies to promote
your business.  Ie: you can't talk about how good your company is.  But, you
can talk about stupid users and such.

Hey, guys and girls,

I know what let's do!

Let's pass the hat and buy dump huck Charles a big honkin' CB rig and a
train ticket to Europe and we'll be rid of his constant whining and
burping.

And that's the way it is!

Walter

No, you can not conduct business on the amateur bands, but you can have
the conversation you mentioned below and it would NOT be against FCC
regs.

Yes, packet on FRS would be interesting, but it IS against FCC regs.

trtty135.zip    TrueTTY: Handle RTTY and PSK31 via sound card

Program to receive and transmit RTTY (radioteletype) and PSK31 (BPSK
mode) via sound card.  No additional hardware required - you need only a
transceiver and computer with sound card.  Optionally you can use simple
circuit for PTT-control.  It make fast and convenient frequence control
and has a lot macros for tramsmitting.  Can cooperate with RZ4AG AAlog
logger.

Special requirements: 5x86-133, Pentium-75 or better, sound card.

Changes: FSK support was added, more macros were added, interface was
         improved.  Bug with fast speed RTTY was fixed.

trtty135.zip has replaced trtty130.zip.

Subject: Which TNC

I'll second the motion for Linux,

Just setup my first Linux box (Red Hat 6.0). Sure there's a bit of a learning
curve, but the potential is awesome and not just for packet. About anything
ham
is fair game. With the newer distributions, the curve isn't near what it was 2
years ago - when last I looked and bailed.

So far been getting APRS stuff setup (xastir, Xaprs) - next will be at least a
sat tracking package. There's a LOT more out there to be had. For chuckles
going to try DosAPRS under DOSEMU - we'll see.

If you're sitting on the fence trying to decide whether or not to dive in,
here
- lemme push you over. Water's great.
