Hi all,
packet techology is already relevant 'per se' having imposed
its influence on almost all types of communications.
The use of the term 'packet radio' involved the amateur radio
activities since many years ago when was created the structure
so called 'TNC' capable, with the radio, to manage a form of
digital communication thanks to the use of a packet protocol
called AX.25: both strickly invented by Radio Amateurs.
With advent of UNIX and then the LINUX and the 'internet'
another radio amateur at UCSD.EDU requested and obtained
an entire slot of 44.x.x.x IP numbers and so opening the
way for implementing the Internet Protocols on the Network
Operating Systems (NOS) now continued to be developed on
the JNOS2 project headed by Maiko, VE4KLM, and naturally,
the AX.25 protocol was fully integrated as native, on
the linux kernel stack, togeter with NETROM and ROSE
protocols... and so on.
There was and there is a great challenge to learn and to
use it by participating on the 44net... and learning
the first rudimentals of the linux platform, at least
at level of application as of for the diffused Windoze...
Several applications depends on above tecnologies: activities
with satellites, spatial platforms (MIR, ISS etc), ATV and ...
naturally for what concern the matter the development and the
implemntation of PBBS(s) (Packet Bulletins Board System) and
derivatives as Packet Cluster, etc. which are currently
developed too: TNX to the auhors of BPQ, FBB. obcm, PZT, ...
Now, replying to some asserts read from time to time on
packet messages the PBBS activity cannot be downgraded to
*the sole use* of HF forwarding, but that is a good practice,
togeter with others, which is practiced only by *fortunate*
radio amateurs.
'Make it relevant': there are several ways for approaching
the goal and cannot be threated on a single message.
The first is to use, at better, all the resouces at disposal
on the field, as for training and as for operating the systems.
Being the actual un-governable status, the diffusion of bulletins
could be addressed simply to the '@WW' route and so eliminating
all the *strange* things (it is an euphemism), HI!
Then a correct education could address to SP messages, always
with the HI!
The least but not the last, the *good* stuff on the field:
imagine if a quater of Sysops of 'check-in' messages ask
about the stuff of the above three paragraphs :)
Thank for all.
73 and ciao, gustavo i0ojj/ir0aab/ir0eq
non multa, sed multum
