There is a list of AMPR coordinators at ftp.cs.buffalo.edu under
/pub/ham-radio/ampr_coordinators or at ucsd.edu (I forget the filename).
The ucsd.edu copy is probably more current.

Contact Brian Kantor, brian@ucsd.edu, if neither list is up-to-date.

I have a PK-232 problem (I am in contact with AEA, but would like a 
second opinion):
  
I just installed the latest ROM upgrade and added the MBX maildrop.  If I 
post several (more than one) messages to my maildrop for reverse 
forwarding, the polling/receiving PBBS, KB1BD-4, gets a "Bad" from me and 
disconnects.  Thus it picks up one message at a time.
    
The BBS is running the latest version of PRMBS.  According to AEA (who 
asked me to send a log that showed the problem) the BBS sends an 
acknowledgement in the form of "RCVD #nnnn...." and AEA says it should 
only be sending me "F>" and nothing else.  AEA says "Tell the sysop to 
suppress that message."  KB1BD says "No can do.  No one else has this 
problem..."  
   
Anyone know any workarounds?  Thanks, in advance.  73, Gerry

How about an even more radical (but practical) idea.
Why not forget this whole packet/INTERNET gateway garbage and just start 
connecting our litle pockets of IP activity directly to the INTERNET??

If you can justify connecting thru the backdoor, you should be able to 
justify a real connection.  And as for limited access, there are a lot of 
companies that run firewall systems to limit access to their local networks.
Doesn't this sound familiar??

Let's drop all this silly hide-and-seek garbage and take our place on
the INTERNET where we belong.

I've been doing the above crossposting of selected articles from Internet
to packet, and visa versia. for some time now.  By hand.  I filter out
stuff the FCC might be unhappy with by hand.  I've concentrated on mod
files, but I also pass along (what is to me) interesting stuff from 
sci.space and such.  I estimate I crosspost  about one out
of a thousand articles I see on eighter system.  I suppose some sort
of corrodination might be possible (segment by topic, maybe), (like I'll
do the mod files, you do sci.space.news of interest, or such).  So we
don't have redundant stuff clogging things up.

I just purchased an used Kenwood TM431: 70cm 35w mobile rig that I want

How do I interface the radio to the modem?

I have Curtis' "9600 baud packet handbook" and it mentions that 
the TM431 has been used successfully with the modem.

Unfortunately, I do not have the schematic and so I would appreciate

  A friend of mine has a MFJ-1270B TNC-2.. He's using it with a Yaesu FT-470 HT
and a Commodore 64.  He's having a problem with the TNC and isn't sure if it's
the TNC itself, or if he's doing something wrong??
 
  He's using a custom made cable to connect between the TNC and Yaesu.. But
his Transmit Audio is VERY LOW!!..  However, when in calibration mode, the
calibration tone's Audio is fine.
 
  I have a PK-232 TNC.. and I know that my cable that connects the TNC
to my Yaesu FT-470 requires a 1K resister and a .33 uF on the Transmit line.
On the MFJ-1270B they say you have to put a Jumper in JMP K on the mother
board of the TNC.. (that is done!)..  BUT still LOW Audio on Transmit!!..
There is a 47K resister that looks to be used on the transmit line, should
I replace this with a 1 K resister???..
 
  Also.. His problem mightbe that his cable is wired wrong.. Anyone know the
proper wiring for a MFJ-1270B -to- Yaesu FT-470 HT???
 
  Anyone have any ideas/suggestions on how to correct this problem??.. (Note:
The Audio on Transmit is SO low that he can NOT connect to ANYTHING!!.. If
you listen REALLY carefully, you can hear the data transmitted.)
 
  Please reply via Mail.. I don't get up here too often.. Thx!

Yes, that is the hardware.  You connect your 500 to the TNC, run the terminal
program, and you are (in theory) ready to go.  (You'll have to learn some of the
ins and outs of packet, but just monitoring is pretty easy.)  I run on an A3000
and a PK-88, total setup time was about two minutes.

I'd save AmigaNOS until after I learned more about packet.  It'll be easier to
set up that way.

Summary: How well does KA9Q, KISS MODE, 9600 BAUD, and these units work?
Keywords: 9600 PACKET TCPIP GRACE AEA DSP-12 DSP-2232 KISS G3RUH

Hi,

I am thinking about buying one of the two units mentioned in the subject
line.  I understand that they both handle KISS mode.  What I don't know
(and I hope some real users of these units can elaborate), is if I have
either of these units, and I have them set in KISS mode (say using 9600
baud between the computer and the dsp box) and I am running KA9Q NOS
under dos and/or unix (os not really important here), can I operate the
G3RUH 9600 capability under TCP/IP to link to other 9600 tcp/ip nodes
running, say, Gracilis PacketTwin's?

That is, KA9Q software as comes from WG7J, KA9Q, PA0GRI, ie, without 
special mods for 9600 tcp/ip and/or special mods for the hardware.  I
assume that since these units can run KISS, that the KISS drivers in
KA9Q will work with them.  I guess you would set the 9600 baud modem mode
then start KISS.  I know WG7J is working on JNOS which interfaces with
high speed modems, but I think that this is a NON-KISS interface (like
interfacing with an ethernet card on the bus).  

Summarizing, with existing KA9Q software and either of these units
running 9600 G3RUH in KISS mode, can I do 9600 TCP/IP?  If so, would
actual doers of this please describe setup/configration steps for
the one you have.  Is one better at this than the other????  Since
it seems that Bob McGwier may not be working on the DSP-2232 anymore,
should one steer towards the LL Grace DSP-12?  

Thanks for any and all comments and advise!  I really appreciate it!

73's,

Mark

First of all, you lose the ability to turn off the computer and let the 
TNC operate as a digi, mailbox, etc.  As the computer does all the bit 
manipulation in the Baycom/Poor Man's Packet (software TNC) method, you 
need your computer on, and running the software, to be able to do 
anything at all on packet.

All stand-alone TNCs can do some operations without a host computer; 
namely, digipeat other signals, and can be used with a "dumb" terminal 
(something I'm doing now...  the computer is obviously being used to 
reply to you...).  The newer TNCs also have a "mailbox" function which is 
essentially a mini BBS.  All these functions are built into the box.

Is it worth the extra $50-$75?  I think so; you might not.

In the interests of saving some $$, I'm thinking of building the
PacketMac Modem described in the October issue of 73 as an alternative

aware of.  Here are a few specific questions:

What sort of equipment is necessary to test and calibrate the circuit?

Will I be able to do everything a low-cost ($100-$150) TNC
can do?

Can I still do non-TCP/IP packet?

How could/should the circuit be packaged?

My experience is with systems software (in particular UNIX systems), but
have little experience with radio.  I built simple circuits in
college (10 years ago), but don't do much with hardware on a
day-to-day basis.  Would I be getting in over my head?

Related observations would also be appreciated.  Email is preferred,

It is a familiar story.

I am more around 1 in 15 or so at times.

The problem here is determining what is interesting. Also, you tend to
post replies rather than original questions so the ability to digest
and edit is important. If not, then complaints start filtering through
that you are the cause of the overload on the packet system :-)

Maybe the key here is to have this moderated data, many of us still will
not trust it, but at least the ratio of data that makes it through can
be higher.

The problem is that the best the amateur community can do for segment
by topic on USENET is to have  r.r.a.misc, r.r.a.packet making it a
nightmare trying to figure out who is responsible for which topic.
Still sounds like we need a small group of people dealing with this,
setting up BIDs and format standards for the information so that it
can be handled efficiently.

Do we have any volunteers to take on the job of running a moderated
group/mailing list that would be willing to colate the editorial
works from several individuals (duties will be stomping on duplication,
generating unique BIDs, ensuring articles are broken into 4K or so blocks,
taking **** from individuals that feel your editorial decisions are bogus,
or from making mistakes in judgement by missing a swear or two :-) ).

The various groups of interest that should be handled:
	ARRL and other bulletins:
		- Keps
		- DX
		- propogation
		- ARES/RACES
		- SAREX
		- Ham Fest announcements
	Solar Reports (already handled by Cary Oler at the moment, you
			too can be on his mailing list ...)
	Mod information and tech reports
	Reviews
	New ideas:
		- new circuitry and ideas
		- packet protocols
	Short wave reports
		- SCDX
		- schedules
	Messages from packet
	Others?

I'd volunteer, as editor, but first I will have to talk to my network
neighbors first, as I am a hitchiker, to determine what they feel about
the load I will be producing ... Also, I suspect my current MX record
will be changing again shortly ... :-( Anyone more suitable willing to
volunteer to be this clearing house?

We also should have volunteers to handle the subset information (there already
are several of you out there already doing this, and you know who you are)
and do some format adjustment perhaps as well as making sure content is
OK.

Has anyone been able to find a FTP site for the new G8BPQ 6.0 Code?? The
one mentioned earlier in the month does not seem to be a valid address or
site..
