  1. Silly question for those who muck around with the cheaper amateur transceivers. What sets out there are capable of packet radio (both classical 1200baud Bell203 and 9600baud G3RUH), dual-band and can do ≥20W?

    I've looked around, and so far the winner seems to be the Yaesu FTM-150R; AU$500 through a local supplier. A little overkill, but workable.

    I was thinking something like a Chinese clone of the FT-7900R if such a thing existed. Dual-band, but single watch, decent power, and mini-DIN 6 data jack.

    eBay list lots of Anytones and other Chinese brands, but none of them I've looked at to date, seem to have a data port for doing packet radio, and I really don't want to go through the microphone circuit for that even though 1200-baud packet is quite forgiving. (9600 baud is not!)

  2. Hmm... Packet Radio with the Epson PX-8. 🤔 I will give it a try. 😃 But first, I have to buy a new battery.

  3. So what's new in the world of digital ham radio? This could be a big deal and might knock proprietary protocols and waveforms on the head. #Mercury #Hermes #opensourcesoftware #vara #packetradio

    Good news for Linux ops too!

  14. Today a Video about my PacketRadio Software called "FlexPacket".

    Sorry @scott, still no PR sound. 😅 It's a 9k6 connection. But in the next PR Video, I will show my APRS Software and then you will also get the great sound of 1k2 PacketRadio. 😃

  24. 44Net wasn’t just built online: it was built in person. In the early days, regional coordinators helped operators modify radios and build TNC’s for packet operation. This hands-on approach is still part of the community today. #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #packetradio

  25. Late night #APRS #bike ride with my budget #PacketRadio setup. 14 miles around the #Illinois State Capitol. Baofeng with a magnetic mount 2m/70cm antenna on a pizza pan in my rear basket.

  26. The future of the #hamradio / #packetradio related AX.25, ROSE and NETROM code in the Linux Kernel is being discussed on the linux-hams list:

  27. A VY2 callsign (Prince Edward Island) left me a message on my packet BBS via RF tonight, and I'm pretty delighted.

  28. The backbone of 44Net is IP address space, but the heart is sharing notes, fixing links, and helping newcomers get on the air. That was true decades ago, and it’s still true today. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio

  29. The next release of FlexPacket will support bluetooth KISS devices. 🙂 It already works quite well but I'm not yet finished in implementing the entire AX25 protocol.

  30. Thinking about putting together a 70cm 9600 baud packet radio endpoint. What's a good radio module that can do 9600 baud on UHF?

    Some I've found: NiceRF SA818U/S, Dorji DRA818U. Still not sure if these can actually do 9600 baud, though. :/
