This (below) is the regularly posted message from the person in charge at the
site which hosts the "rec.radio" newsgroup hierarchy. As you can see, there
is
no such newsgroup "rec.radio.amateur.packet", nor has control authority for
such ever been delegated out.
You asked why it mattered? It matters because some ISP's won't carry non-
"Alt"
newsgroups that aren't authorized. Furthermore, if you knew what you were
talking about, you would know that it's DeJa, not "Daja."

Newsgroups: rec.radio.amateur.digital.misc, rec.radio.amateur.dx
Subject: List of the rec.radio newsgroups
In an effort help ensure a poster's article reaches the appropriate
audience, below is a list of the rec.radio newsgroups. In most cases,
a group's name will explain its purpose. Cross-posting should rarely
be necessary.
rec.radio.broadcasting (devoted to the broadcast industry; moderated)
rec.radio.cb
rec.radio.info (periodic informational bulletins; moderated)
rec.radio.scanner
rec.radio.shortwave
rec.radio.swap (for buying, selling, and trading; not a discussion group)
rec.radio.amateur.antenna
rec.radio.amateur.boatanchors (tube-type communications equipment)
rec.radio.amateur.digital.misc (packet, pactor and other digital modes)
rec.radio.amateur.dx (long-distance amateur communications)
rec.radio.amateur.equipment (questions, comments regarding commercially-
built amateur gear; not for buying/selling)
rec.radio.amateur.homebrew (devoted to home-building ham gear)
rec.radio.amateur.policy (issues include code, restructuring, local
restrictions in conflict with FCC R&R)
rec.radio.amateur.space (satellites, meteor scatter, EME)
rec.radio.amateur.misc (any topic not covered in the above groups)
(At least two other English language radio hierarchies exist, prefixed
with "uk" (United Kingdom), and "aus" (Australia), in place of "rec.")
Again, cross-posting should rarely be necessary. Many times, a long-
running thread results from a single cross-posted article, and its
content drifts further and further away from being "on-topic" in the
various NGs which receive each and every followup.
For more detailed information, see "Guide to the Rec.radio Newsgroups"
posted on the 15th of each month.

I see you are still messing around with TCP/IP. Just can't get away from
it!!!! It has been so long since I have run TCP/IP that I have forgotten
all I knew about it.
Later,
