Fair enough I plead guilty on a number of points. Perhaps if I expand my ideas
a little further my arguments will carry greater weight.
 
1. Need for CB Packet Service. The difficulty with current Amateur Packet, as I
see it, is that it does not permit third party traffic. i.e one can't  work
through the vk packet net to other non-ham nets unless speaking to another
amateur. This means that one can't speak to non-hams in either real-time or by
messaging using the network. 
 
Conversely however, a CB packet network would mean that one could speak to
anyone with the appropriate equipment as well as access many of the current
favorite bbs's and networks once these bbs's got hooked up. All this without
paying a cent to Telecom. The existence of a free radio medium with designated
node to node channels would make the creation of a far faster network a more
realistic possibility as the cost would be lower to maintain i.e no phone calls
to update.
 
2. No of Channels needed. I only suggested 80 as a figure off the top of my
head but consider this. There would need to be channels for a number fo
purposes. A number would need to be allocated for local use i.e to enable a
user to contact the bbs and more channels would need to be allocated seperately
so that concurrently bbs's are updating between themselves and around the
network. Ideally these channels would be on a seperate band so that two
transmitters could operate in close proximity with a minimum of interference to
each other. Finally there may be a need for longer distance channels so that a
central node in say Melbourne can communicate/update to country bbs's and
interstate via the network. This structure would provide the basis for a viable
organised network. The other consideration is that there would probably be many
bbs's utilising the channels and one needs to avoid interference between
bulletin boards. In certain conditions signals can travel further than usual so
the greater the numbers of channels the less interference.
 
3. Choice of band. Look i cant argue with you re extending the current uhf
allocation. If the bandspace is there it would be a good idea. The question is
.. is it currently used and if so, where else can a band be found. A portion of
the ham band is one idea but by no means the only choice. 4. Promoting the
hobby. Poor choice of words there. What I meant to say is .. allow bbs users to
enjoy their hobby without braking the bank.
 
So there you have it. A number of other peeople have been generally supportive
of the idea and nobody has decided to really slam the proposal yet. Perhaps the
idea could get off the ground...

You must not forget that a lot of the pager trash is from badly designed

called pager sites and I still can not hear them. But I can hear them on my
alinco radio.

Yours ideas sound ok Craig. By the way you may be interested that there is a
new class of license, the limited novice, giving 2m and 70cm ( voice and packet
) coming shortly. All you would need to get the license would be to pass a
basic electronics theory exam and a regs exam. Both these are pretty easy (
I've passed both ). Why not give it a try? Contact your local Amateur club for
details.
 
In relation to you proposals for the CB Packet band, I would suggest that a
number of channels be low speed and a number be high speed that way everybody
gets a go. There would need to be plenty of channels though. Interlinking
between states should not be a problem as this is done currently with the VK
Amateur Packet network.
 
It would be nice to see an article discusiing the relative merits of a CB
packet band appear in a national mag like CB action or Amateur Radio Action. I
would like to see a lot more discussion on the subject as I feel that this
question of making BBs access cheaper deserves ago. Packet equipment is not
that expensive and im sure that the savings in telephone charges would soon pay
their own way.

Hi evryone
 
I'd be interested to know peoples thought on the idea of a new Citizens band
radio... one exclusively for packet radio. The idea would be that non-amateurs
would be able to communicate with their local bullettin boards without the need
to pay for the telephone calls. The band would need say, 80 channels and would
ideally be on vhf or uhf. My suggestion is that a portion of the 70cm Amateur
band be allocated for this purpose.
 
The whole system need only be low powered as it would be intended for local
communications. In country areas higher power outputs could be used. An example
would be city areas = 1 watt while country areas get 10 watts. The use of
directional antennas should be encouraged as this would minimise interference
to other stations.
 
I know some amateurs will argue that the new limited novice qualification is
intended for this purpose however I feel that most intending users do not
really need to study radio theory as, in a similar fashion to cb, the equipment
is readily available off the shelf.
 
Lest I be accused of bias I should point out that I hold both Limited and
Novice qualifications. 
 
As for the question of losing a portion of the 70cm band well... too bad. I
would suggest that within a very short period of time after the introduction of
such a service, there would be many thousands of computer users utilising the
band - many more than there will ever be if it remains a purely amateur
playground.
 
I'm sure the above suggestion will cause a storm in the Amateur ranks but
really computer users need to access their local bulletin boards without being
milked by telecom.
 
 
So lets hear some comments about the idea ( constructive please ). My thought
is that if Amateurs and their respective organisations assisted in the setting
up of such a service rather than yelled and screamed about losing bandspace,
then they would do far more to promote the hobby than a limited novice
qualification will ever do.

SSTV Enthusiasts Send Pictures Through RS-12/13

VE4AMU reports that there are several RS-12/13 users who are currently
sending SSTV pictures through RS-12/13.  RS-12/13 is in Mode KT and VE4AMU
says that the SSTV modes used are the 12, 24, and 36 second ROBOT color and
AVT 24.  VE4MAU notes that it is a little harder to send pictures through
RS-12/13 because of the doppler-shift one encounters with this "low-earth-
orbiting" OSCAR.  Also, he says you should expect some "noise" mixed in with
the picture on the downlink frequency of 29.440 MHz.  VE4AMU wants to
invite all SSTV and RS-12/13 enthusiasts to join him on an uplink of 21.240
MHz, with the downlink signal on 29.440 MHz, +/- doppler.  If you would
like to set-up a schedule with VE4AMU for SSTV operations on RS-12/13, send
him a message to his local packet radio BBS: VE4AMU@VE4KV.#WPG.MB.CAN.NOAM.
For more information about SSTV in general, see the January '93 issue of
QST or join the SSTV Net on Saturday mornings at 14.230 MHz where pictures
and information is exchanged.

[The AMSAT News Service (ANS) would like to thank VE4AMU for this bulletin
item.]
