- A NOS question (since I'm having troubles with it). Why is it that when
- I do an ne rou add ARA4 w0ljf-4 nos 192 w0ljf-4 and then try a
- n c ARA4, ARA4 is treated like the real name instead of the alias, e.i.,
- it tries to connect to ARA4 @ ARA4 and doesn't even go out over nos (nos
- being my symbolic name of the tnc)?

- Well your friend can do TCP/IP on ham radio but there are a bunch of provisos.
- The major proviso is that he must be a licensed ham. The next is that the
- use of Amateur radio, in general, may not be for the purpose of replacing
- a common carrier such as the phone company. Third, you may not conduct
- business on ham radio.
-
- Your friend may have another important problem. What's the status of Singapore
- in terms of third party agreements? Someone out there in a position to know?
