Earlier there was some chatter on this newsgroup about TEKK's
data/telemetry radios. Are these radios suitable for use with AFSK
modulation? Specifically the TI TCM3105 modem chip. Has anyone done
this?
thanks,
Bret

Subject: Data about Repeaters
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
Hello to all Hams:
My name is Bryan Parlee, VE3BKP, a native of Ontario and a temporary
resident of Nova Scotia, Canada. I am attending the College of Geographic
Sciences and as an Amateur Operator (although only 8months with my ticket)
I am looking for some data. My career and study area deals with spatial
mapping, satellite imagery, computer modelling and so on. This industry
area is known as Geomatics. I am intending to construct/design a
Communications Database/Mapping system using existing GIS software like
SPANS or ARC/INFO. What is missing however, are known sources of
informations/data for Ontario repeaters. I have a list of the actual
repaters, call, input, and output...but I would like to go deeper than
that with data such as wattage, RX range, Transmission radius,
location coordinates, packet linkage info, and functions available.
Does anyone know of such a source or perhaps a contact that could
provide such information??
My e-mail address is gis308@cogs.ns.ca
....73's and Thanx , Bryan (VE3BKP)

Hi!.
Recently, I asked if there is a version of ka9q for windows. here
are some answers:
THERE IS NO KA9Q.
The versions of Ka9q will not run under a DOS box in Windows, but
there are some patches that will help you.
There is also a software called Trumped Winsock that implements
TCP/IP in windows.
Thanks to everyone who answered me.

JNOS version 1.07b or later WILL run in a Window happily.
You can find it on UCSD.EDU and many other FTP sites.
Do an archie search on "JNOS" for more options.

Now I'm confused. I have been running PA0GRI's version of KA9Q's NOS in a
DOS window under Windows(tm) for a month now. It works like a charm. I
leave it running while my daughter uses Write, Paintbrush, games, etc...
Sometimes I even run PCelm in a second DOS window and use a Windows based
freeware emacs rip-off to edit mail and replies.
I am only running a 16MHz 386SX with 8Meg and a VGA monitor.
I haven't tried Phil's latest one from Mecca under Windows, but, I imagine it
would work the same. While the L&G (Latest and Greatest) from KA9Q himself
doesn't have some of the features of JNOS, MFNOS, GRINOS, etc, etc, etc, it
does have an on screen unACK'd frame counter and a separate session for trace
stuff.
>Thanks to everyone who answered me.
You're quite welcome. For the benefit of others, here is what I sent Erich
last week:
| I don't know if there is one FOR windows. I doubt it. On ucsd.edu is a
| file /hamradio/packet/tcpip/mswin/mswinnos.zip. It contains some notes and
| a .PIF file that will allow NOS to run in a DOS window under Windows(tm).
| It works quite well.
|
| This will NOT work with the BayCom style modems. They put too much load on
| the system to be able to run under Windows.

Subject: Notebook interference to HT?
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
I am successfully running a packet station using a Gateway 386/25 and
a KPC-3 and a Realistic HTX-202. I have recently tried the same
configuration except using a Compudyne 396SXL notebook computer.
When using this computer, I get so much interference on the HT that
I can not even squelch it out. I have tried several different
antennas but it was no help. What can you recommend I do to make
this a usable packet setup?
Thanks...Win (KE4IHG)

Subject: PK-88 mailbox, can it forward mail to other stations?
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
I have a PK-88 set up to forward mail to my home bbs. It will not do
so unless polled by that bbs, however. I think that is part of a
firmware upgrade, so if your friend has an older model that has not
been upgraded, it may not have the capability. Also, the PK-88 will
not accept hierarchical addressing for outbound mail. --Gary, K9CZB

Subject: Q: Monicor, Inc. -- Software ???
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
I was wondering if anyone has had experience designing software for
a radio frequency modem from Monicor in Florida. I've been assigned
the daunting task of developing software to route up to 16 separate
links from handheld radios on a plant floor and a mainframe.
I anticipate using a 386 or 486 running DOS as the router and I would
like to see/hear what others have done in this arena. Specifically
-- What data structure, functions, and exceptions NEED to be available?
-- What is the best way to control the UART in the PC?
-- What time division routines can be used knowing my hardware constraints?
-- Is there any C or C++ shareware out there I can use?
please respond via email

TOP-TEN SLOGANS FOR DIGITAL MODE - by WA2EAA
--------------------------------
17. "FECing" is OK, but I prefer "Masterstation".
16. Take TNC (you're old if you "get" this).
15. Just the FAX, ma'am.
14. COMPRESSED PACKET runs 8-level code. You can KISS ASCII.
13. I FEC'd for hours, but my contact never came.
12. You bet your ASCII I run digital mode!
11. "QRL?" the frequency first: Practice safe FECs.
10. AMTOR is just a baby-SITOR. (bah-dump!)
9. Reach out & FEC someone.
8. DIGITAL MODE: It's a kick in the ASCII!
7. AMTOR: It's FEC'n fun!
6. Noah's ARQ.
5. In AMTOR it takes two to perform "Masterstation".
4. FEC until you're ARQ'd.
3. I can't decode 7-level, so you'd better byte my ASCII.
2. Keep on FEC'n (tie-dyed shirt seen at a 'Dead concert).
and the number 1 slogan
1. Put your TNC in loopback, and FEC yourself!

(Last night 40-meters was QRN-city and I had nothing better to do)
