Subject: Radio between 2 Computers Privately
Actually, that would be VERY illegal. The reason? All ham radio cannot be
encoded with codes or ciphers.
Sorry....

I think your best bet is getting one of the old "satellite" rigs like the
Yaesu Ft-726r or the some what newer Ft-736. Make SURE if you get the 726r
it comes with the satellite board in it and all of the modules for the
different bands you will operate on. Trying to find modules for this rig is
really hard, but the used price is reasonable, about $500 to $600 USD. The
736 is a much nicer rig and you can get a 23cm module for it too! Now if
you really have some money try looking at the Yaesu FT-847.
A data radio will not work for satellite packet because these radios are
crystal controlled on one frequency only. For satellite COM's you need to
tune frequently to compensate for Doppler shift. Also some of the modes
require SSB, and the data radios are FM only.

Subject: What is a good Packet Modem?
Hi,
Me and my dad are looking at getting a packet modem for ham radio for when
we finally get our amateur licenses. I'm in the UK and have seen modems in
the Maplins catalogue and Lowe ElectronicsCatalogue, Could anyone tell me
what a good modem to get would be, whats a good price, what protocols are
handled, like KISS, amtor, CW, etc. and which of these are necessary?
also what software is best considering i have win 3.11.
Thanks in advance.

Subject: What is a good Packet Modem?
Me and my son did packet and although I did it for 5 years my son soon got
feed up with it. As a result I suggest you start off with cheap options and
if you like it then get something like a Pakratt and if you don't like it
then only £10 down the drain with a baycom modem plus the fun of building
it.
North West Packet users group do kits for packet from simple baycom to
full TNC's far cheaper than Maplins or Lowe, Ready built baycom units are
about £70. I started with an old Amiga and that would allow both my Son's
and My call signs to be set on same computer, only draw back was the mail
box was not a standard access so only other baycom users knew how to use it.
There are systems to allow baycom to use programs like Winpack using another
program that links the two together but I never got it to run correct. Also
remember packet relies on a BBS system and some areas are very quick and run
great where as others are very hard to get a good link. So to try first
seems best way.
