Wow, logged with point of origin!  That will *scare* your abusers!
And what are you going to do when it turns out to be a dialup on uunet or
one of the other providers not interested in taking an abuse report??
Each time he dials in he will have another address, so there is little else
you can do than blocking the entire networks of those companies...

CQ Advice, CQ Advice DE AC7JO,

I am looking into packet but I don't know where to start. Could you
point me to some web sites where I could start learning about how to get
my feet wet? The TAPR web site is confusing and I have already read the
ARRL TIS info on digital. Specifically, I am interested in TNCs and old
PCs (I am Mac-only at present,) their prices, and availability's.
My eventual goal is to communicate with the International Space Station,
and with my father, KD7GNO, when I go off to college. I own an IC-2100,
and have been loaned an HF rig by WA9OXY. Also, I am a student whose
parents have just bought a house, so I don't have much cash left. So,
any advice? Thank you in advance for your time.

   Well the old Kantronics KPC-3's work fine but the new pluses are a
bit better. For packet any old 486 or low grade pentium will work just
fine for packet. You should be able to find used KPC-3's for a song,
old PCs as well. I use KAGold for packet, see:

http://www.interflex.com/

Heavens, if all you need is a terminal for a KPC-3, even an old 386 box is
likely
to do the trick.  Older machines are suitable, too, but the software support
is likely
to be poor.

Since the original post I've installed WinWarbler. This program runs fine.
