A VY2 callsign (Prince Edward Island) left me a message on my packet BBS via RF tonight, and I'm pretty delighted.

Did you know? The creator of KA9Q NOS, Phil Karn KA9Q, later worked at Qualcomm, applying ideas from amateur packet radio to early mobile data systems. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio
The backbone of 44Net is IP address space, but the heart is sharing notes, fixing links, and helping newcomers get on the air. That was true decades ago, and it’s still true today. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio

The next release of FlexPacket will support bluetooth KISS devices. 🙂 It already works quite well but I'm not yet finished in implementing the entire AX25 protocol.

Early 44Net traffic often moved at 1200 bits per second over packet radio. Today, many links run at millions of bits per second using modern equipment, often built by the same volunteer community. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio
44Net links together volunteer-built networks over the Internet and over the air, using mostly off-the-shelf gear and shared know-how, continuing a tradition that started with homemade packet radio stations decades ago. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio
