W8SDZ@Simtel20.ARPA (11/03/84)
From: Keith Petersen <W8SDZ@Simtel20.ARPA>
Thanks to Bob Clements <clements@bbn-cd.arpa>, version 6.9 of the W0RLI
Packet Radio MailBox/BBS/GateWay system is now available from SIMTEL20.
Here are Bob's comments about the package.
---
This system runs on the following hardware:
Computer:
Xerox 820-1 computer (the ones that were available for $50,
and are still around for not much more),
one or more 8" single density, single or double sided disk drives,
parallel keyboard, CRT monitor.
Packet Radio gear:
One or Two TAPR (or AEA) TNCs with version 3.1 or later software.
(Two TNCs if you are going to run a crossband Gateway.)
Radio gear:
One or two transceivers.
The W0RLI software supports sending and receiving mail, uploading
and downloading files, capturing typescripts, logging channel activity
and mailbox activity, and gateway operation between two TNCs on two
bands.
Read the file NOTES.TNC to start working your way through the
documentation.
