Subject: Current Capabilities of Packet?
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some information
detailing the different price/performance options available for an amateur
radio setup capable of communicating with the internet via packet
radio. I'm trying to get a feel for the amount of equipment
required to get started, to see if this is something I could afford
to do as a hobby. I have a fast computer, and I need a radio, TNC,
antenna, special modem (?). I am also unclear on how one becomes
connected to the net. Are there any other options I should consider
for wireless internet service before choosing Amateur Radio Packet?
Thanks alot for any information.

To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
I just installed the UNIX variant Coherent on my PC, and was wondering if
anyone out there has been able to use it for packet? I run JNOS in the
DOS world, and enjoy being able to use TCP/IP. It would be way cool to
be able to do this from Coherent. I know that there are AX.25 drivers
available for Linux. Are they usable with Coherent? Is there a version
of JNOS available for Coherent? Basically, my question is that I have
Coherent installed, so how can I integrate Packet Radio with it?
73!

Subject: KAMPlus & UNIX for Packet
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
Hello All. Thanks for reading this mail. I am wondering if anyone can
kindly give me info on following questions!
1) Can I use KAMPlus 7.0 under UNIX operating system?
2) Is there any terminal software which can talk to KAMPlus?
3) How do I connect and initialise the TNC under UNIX just to talk to
it?
4) Is there any known public or shareware or even commercial software
which will control the KAMPlus under UNIX operating system?
NB: The UNIX runs on Apple Macs and NCSA.
I would deeply appreciate your help on this issue. Thanks!

Subject: Pakratt Pactor/Amtor WORDOUT
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
Can anyone point me towards the WORDOUT command in Pakratt 5.5?
I want to be able to delete letters after they have been sent,
but I cannot find anywhere in Pakratt the PK232 WORDOUT
command, which enables this to happen.
Have AEA just forgotten to put it in? Have I missed it somewhere?
Is there a way round the problem?
