My primary interests are in packet radio network building (particularly
higher speed stuff) and TCP/IP. I've got quite a lot of info on using
the Kantronics D4-10 19.2kB radios, as that's the hardware we've been
struggling with here.
TAPR (Tuscon Amateur Packet Radio) has formed a special interest group
to discuss issues of regional packet networking (Net-SIG). As a result,
the TAPR net-sig mailing list was born, and is now ready for operation.
This list is <not> intended to replace any of the existing packet-related
mailing lists. Its purpose is provide a medium for communications among
those interested in packet radio networking, both dealing with technical
issues and political/regulatory ones. We'll discuss things like how the
potential 219MHz band will fit into the networking picture, how to link
areas using different networking schemes, how to set network parameters,
etc. The list's charter will be posted there regularly.
The address of the list is net-sig@tapr.org and you can subscribe by sending
mail to listserv@tapr.org with the text "join netsig".
Apart from subscribing to the list, you can contact me for further details
about the Net-SIG (including upcoming conferences).
(See also Bob Nielsen for more information about TAPR)

I can assist anyone with most PC installation/troubleshooting
problems. I have a good deal of experience installing and configuring
OS/2, have a good grasp of Unix (not a wizard yet though :), and a
thorough familiarity with the ISA bus and the cards that go in it.
On the radio side of things, I like digital modes and experimenting with
antennas, specifically:
- PACTOR and AMTOR
- Configuring Kantronics All-Mode (KAM) TNC's for proper operation
- Over a decade of packet experience, including setting up both DOS and
OS/2 versions of KA9Q NOS
- HF wire antennas, including 160m full-wave delta loops

Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) matters
Equipment Testing
I want stories about automotive EMI problems, dealings with dealers,
and, if possible, solutions. I plan to forward these to my contact at
the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE).
If anyone knows the *right* people at any particular company, I want
to know. I am also pursuing (via the SAE) more official channels.
EMI/RFI Resource List and RFI Tips package available. A business
SASE with 98 cents postage is appreciated. Electronic versions
available soon. Please specify the desired documents in your
correspondence.
The FCC has released the results of a telephone interference survey
just completed.
If you would like a copy of the survey, which includes a list of
telephone models checked, send an SASE with two units of first class
postage to the Technical Information Service at ARRL HQ. Alternatively,
you may obtain an electronic copy from the info server below.
If anyone is having a problem with CATVI, send a 9X12" SASE with 4 units of
postage to the ARRL Technical Department Secretary. Ask for the "EMI/RFI
Package" and "EMI/RFI - CATV." The CATV package includes a reprint of the
article I wrote for Communications Technology -- the journal of the Society
of Cable Television Engineers. Your local cable company will recognize this
publication and will give credence to the words therein.
If you have any questions after you have read the material, contact me here
at HQ. I can usually get back to you within a few days to offer some
additional help.
Many amateur radio informational documents (including EMI/RFI files) are
also available from the ARRL info server. Send E-mail to info@arrl.org
with the word "HELP" in the message body.
ARRL info server files may also be accessed via anonymous FTP at:

CWISTS Friday Night Fist Function
Standard time: Friday Nights at MIDNIGHT LOCAL TIME
Standard freq: 80 meters --- 3702.5 khz for all hands.
40 meters --- 7102.5 khz alternate, for all hands
(between the heterodynes)
(someone scout out a better QRG)
___
Standard calling signal: CWIST IMI DE <yourcall> K (if there
are no control stations calling for
you to check in), or,
CWIST DE <yourcall> K (if there is a
control station inviting checkins)
(The alternative check in for those OTs
with salt behind the ears is a simple
DE to get the control station's ears
followed by DE <yourcall> K when the
control station acknowledges.)
Note: A simple informal net style protocol will generally be
used, unless no control station assumes control for the
evening, in which case it is an open roundtable format
discussion group.
Note: The midnight local time gathering is designed to maximize
the number of checkins spread out over the world, so less
confusion and more checkins are heard. The hope is that
someone will be aboard almost anywhere and be heard at
least locally, anywhere in the world.
Definition: A CWIST is a person with an active interest in the PRACTICE
and USE of continuous wave radiotelegraphy as directly is
applicable to amateur radio. Such PRACTICE and USE may
take the form of learning about radiotelegraphy and its
history in amateur/commercial areas, its application to radio
telecommunication, the practicing of the art and craft of
radiotelegraphy, and the refining and developing of the
technology of radiotelegraphy.
Author of NA4G's National Electrical Code for Hams
ABSTRACT
This work was presented as a talk to the Homebrew Special
Interest Group (HB-SIG) of the Raleigh Amateur Radio Society
(RARS), on 15 January, 1991 and was revised for another
presentation on 26 January, 1994.
This document contains excerpts of the National Electrical
Code (NFPA 70-1990) that, in the author's opinion, apply to
the installation of amateur radio equipment as would
commonly be found in most amateur radio stations. Direct
excerpts from the Code are contained within inset
quotations. Paraphrased excerpts from the Code are
itemized. The author's interpretation and discussion of the
Code is set full-width. The author's interpretation and
discussion of various sections of the Code is not meant to
be all-encompassing, nor the official interpretation of the
National Fire Protection Association, nor of any offical
governing body having legal authority of jurisdiction over
electrical installations, but is meant to be used as a
teaching tool for amateur radio operators.

As with any volunteer effort, new volunteers are often needed. We need
new editors to post the above FAQ's. Preferably this should be
someone who has enthusiasm for hobbyist radio, experience with UseNet, and
the ability to work with the other editors. No single person can know
all the various aspects of these diverse hobbies so the editorial review
groups are intended to make a greater combination of experience.
The FAQ is currently posted with the AUTO-FAQ software, which is
written in PERL. So it would be a plus for volunteers to post the
FAQ to have PERL installed on their system and be able to use "cron"
or "at" so that postings can go unattended.
Anyone who wants to make their contribution to the Net as a volunteer
should contact one of the above administrivia addresses.

A few members of our ham radio club were interested in helping out.
Since our turnover is usually 4 years or so (graduation is a horrible
thing), I thought it may be difficult for us to keep the list up to
date. I thought that by creating a local mailing list called
"elmers@iastate.edu" we could add or remove people as need be. There
would always be at least one person receiving mail on that list,
usually more! Even after I graduate, this list will be maintained
allowing ISU hams to easily help others.
Currently we have people with packet experience, some HF experience,
much repeater experience, in addition to a considerable background in
theory, as many here are electrical engineering or computer engineering
students. If a question can not be answered by the readers of the list,
there are many other local hams that could be prodded for the info.
Our local ham radio club has been especially interested in helping local
disabled hams (or hams to be) get on the air. But anyone local who
needed help would find a group at their door ready to work.

There is now a mailing list set up for the UK TCP/IP Networking Group
(UKIP). This is a loosely-organised group set up to promote the use of
TCP/IP networking protocols over radio in the UK, and to encourage the
establishment of high-speed backbone links and network gateways.
If you want to subscribe:
Send mail to ukip-request@cs.nott.ac.uk. This is handled by a
human rather than a listserver, so be polite :-)
To post to the list:
Send mail to ukip@cs.nott.ac.uk. Subscription requests and other
administrative bits and bobs should go to ukip-request, _not_ to
the list as this just means that lots of people read your
subscription message and get cross.
I can personally answer quite a lot of the questions about TCP/IP-related
subjects.
Be forewarned that the list is fairly technical in its discussions, so
probably not the best place for beginners to start :).

I have a collection of service information and literature dating back
to the 1920's. I will be happy to assist those needing copies of
out-of-copyright information for specific makes and models of
receivers, transmitters, test equipment, etc..
The collection spans commercial, amateur, and military surplus gear of all
types. Unfortunately I have not taken the time to catalog all this
information, but it is logically filed by make, model, etc.
If you need service information for a specific piece of equipment,
(and I have the information in my collection) I will research and copy
it for you. Cost will vary depending on the time required to find the
information and the amount of pages to be copied. I estimate 10 pages
or less at $1.00/page including US postage. I will quote on larger
manuals.
This is NOT my career or a business. Any requests must be prepaid or I will

I am very lucky in that I earn my living in radio communications, so my
expertise is fairly broad (but not focused on amateur techniques only):
Modulation types - FSK, PSK, MSK
Error control - various types of ARQ and FEC systems
RF - Antennas, HF propagation
Networking - TCP/IP over HF
Frequency bands: VLF, LF, HF, VHF, UHF, SHF
This is a very brief synopsis of the areas that I have dealt with over
the years. I always enjoy discussing and researching a communications
problem so if you don't see it listed above drop me a line anyway,
especially if you happen to be in Europe.

I can help people with HF stuff, cheap antennas, and am willing to help
troubleshoot problems with rigs.
I believe that one of the pillars of ham radio - construction/
understanding at the burn-your-hand-with-a-soldering-iron level - is
drifting out of ham radio. With Japanese radios which cost so much,
fewer and fewer hams are willing to risk their warranty to service their
own equipment. I would like to see a turn-around here...

AMSAT-NA (the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation in North America)
operates the Internet host AMSAT.ORG to provide for efficient
communications between people interested in the amateur satellite
program. At this time two services are provided: a message remailing
service and a mailing list service.
In the future, an archive of files will be accessible by anonymous
ftp or possibly by email. In the meantime, check the FTP site:
ftp://ftp.ucsd.edu/hamradio/
for AMSAT-related files. Consult your local guru for help on using
by anonymous ftp for AMSAT-related files. Consult your local guru
for help on using anonymous ftp.
The message remailing service permits users to send each other mail
on the Internet without keeping track of each other's Internet
address. The remailing service allows each user to receive mail sent
to the address callsign@amsat.org, where callsign is that user's
amateur radio callsign, or other unique identifier. Mail sent to
that address will be routed first to the AMSAT.ORG host at UCSD in
San Diego, then remailed from AMSAT.ORG to the network address
specified by the user. In most cases, this process delays the
message by only a very few minutes.
The mailing list service groups subscribers into mailing lists to
receive certain types of messages. There are public mailing lists
available to anyone, and private mailing lists available only to
certain people (for example, AMSAT Board of Directors members or
PACSAT command stations). Currently the following public mailing
lists exist:
ANS AMSAT News Service
This mailing list carries official news releases from
the AMSAT News Service. These messages are posted in
a form suitable for direct posting to a packet radio
BBS system. Each message contains a Bulletin Identifier
(BID), which permits the message to be introduced into
the packet network at many places without resulting in
duplicate bulletins at any BBS. The primary purpose of
this mailing list is to distribute ANS bulletins for
redistribution (via the packet net or on AMSAT voice
nets), but individuals may also subscribe for their own
use. If your local packet BBS doesn't seem to get the
ANS bulletins reliably, you are encouraged to post the
ANS bulletins yourself.
Only authorized AMSAT News Service personnel should
send messages to the ANS mailing list.
AMSAT-BB AMSAT bulletin board
This mailing list carries general AMSAT information.
This information may NOT be suitable in content for
transmission via amateur radio, so automatic reposting
of AMSAT-BB messages to packet radio BBS's is discouraged.
The purpose of this mailing list is to provide a forum
for general discussion of any satellite-related topic.
Anyone may send messages to the AMSAT-BB mailing list.
Simply address your message to amsat-bb@amsat.org, and
it will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers
to the AMSAT-BB mailing list.
Editors of publications should ask permission of the
sender before publishing anything seen in AMSAT-BB
elsewhere, unless the posting was obviously a public
press release. However, posters should realize that
anything posted to AMSAT-BB is essentially public.
KEPS Keplerian Elements mailing list
This mailing list carries official postings of Keplerian
element sets for satellites of interest to radio amateurs.
Like the ANS bulletins, these messages are posted in a
form suitable for direct posting to a packet radio BBS.
Only authorized AMSAT News Service personnel should
send messages to the KEPS mailing list.
NASAINFO NASA related information mailing list
This mailing list contains information about current
and planned NASA space missions. Be forewarned: at times
this mailing list delivers many large messages.
SAREX Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment mailing list
This mailing list contains information and press releases
pertaining to SAREX missions.
To obtain any of these services, just send a message to the address
listserv@amsat.org
This address may be reached from CompuServe MAIL as:
>INTERNET:listserv@amsat.org
For the moment, the maintenance of the AMSAT.ORG mailing lists and
remailing aliases is done manually. Later, this service will
probably be automated and you will have to follow a strict message
format. For now, you may send requests in free format. They will
usually be processed within a few days. In general, you will not
receive an explicit reply to your request. Be sure you specify:
1. Which mailing list(s) you want to receive
2. Your callsign, if any
3. The Internet address to be used, if different from the
one in your From: header.
You should not send messages about your subscriptions to any of the
mailing lists. Send them to listserv@amsat.org instead. This
includes questions, requests for changes, requests for information
about mailing services, and complaints.
The list of amateurs who may be reached via the message remailing
service may be obtained by requesting the "address book". Note that
the address book as distributed contains only the callsigns of the
available addressees, not their actual Internet addresses. The address
book is updated occasionally, and does not necessarily contain the very
latest information.
You may request to be added to the list, to be deleted from the list,
or to have your Internet address changed on the list. Please include
your callsign if you have one. If you don't have a callsign, that's
OK, but please say so. If you have more than one Internet address
you want to have available on the AMSAT.ORG remailer, you may so
specify. For instance, if you have a regular Internet address and a
CompuServe account, you may appear in the address book as both w1xyz
and w1xyz-cis. Mail sent to w1xyz would go to your Internet address,
and mail sent to w1xyz-cis would go to CompuServe. MCImail accounts
have the form w1xyz-mci, and so on.
You may also subscribe or unsubscribe to any of the public mailing
lists described above. Send a message to listserv@amsat.org,
specifying clearly which mailing list(s) you want to add or drop, and
giving your callsign if you have one. When you subscribe to a
mailing list, you will automatically be added to the remailing
service as well, because the mailing lists are maintained by
callsign. If you have more than one address listed in the remailing
service, please indicate which one(s) you want the mailing list
messages sent to.
Additional mailing lists, public or private, can be set up as needed.
Send mail to listserv@amsat.org for details.
Questions about any service offered by AMSAT.ORG may be directed to
listserv@amsat.org as well.
