[net.ham-radio] Packet Gateway Activity on HF

dna@dsd.UUCP (03/20/84)

More gateway activity, this time on HF.  Bob Bruninga, WB4APR, backed
two TNCs together, one pointed toward HF and the other toward the
AMRAD packet repeater.  I connected with Bob on 10.147MHz LSB 200Hz
shift 300BPS last Sunday evening and had packet QSOs with Bill, WB4NFB,
of Burke, VA and Rod, WA3MEZ, of Randallstown, MD.

I plan on activating a similar arrangement here in the Des Moines area
this coming weekend.  Hopefully we will have a gateway to gateway QSO
between stations connected via VHF links in our respective areas thru
the HF link.
