Re: why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
Because we are lazy, and we have equipment that works... And we've all seen what happens with "novelty".... I'd run a BBS on morse code if I could get away with it, just because and I don't care

Re: why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
Mostly what? "James C. Richardson, GSEC | HAM: WV8JCR"? said. (and many other replys) I run ALOT of digi modes and have for 30+ years. I love Olivia, Contesa and ALE400. Right now I am a "alpha"

Re: why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
Hi Tadd, Yeah, the VARA port is one of my BPQ node's radio ports, with BPQ networked to an (X)Net node (Flexnet-compatible) on a Linux netbook.? (X)Net is linked via VHF to the local Eastnet (they

Re: why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
David, Couldn¡¯t you say the same of CW or RTTY or PSK31, or a dozen others modes. I agree, there are more robust modes now and better suited for the quick QSOs many enjoy now, but what other mode

Re: why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
Jeff nailed it for me¡­ packet supports multiple simultaneous connections. My node uses AX.25 for user ports on both HF and VHF. I use VARA HF for forwarding on both HF and 6M for just the reason you

Have you got VARA networked in at both ends? I would do that.

Hi David, Here is another map of AX.25 activity I maintain out of love for packet. This one is for North America: Nationwide Packet Map With over 110,000 views in the last couple of years, I'd say

Re: why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
VARA rocks.? We switched from 300bd ax.25 over to VARA HF for a 24/7 180-mile BPQ backbone link, and never looked back.? The difference is amazing.? Even when propagation was good, there were just

For me it¡¯s because: a) it¡¯s closed source, b) it isn¡¯t free, and c) it doesn¡¯t natively run on Linux James C. Richardson, GSEC | HAM: WV8JCR

why do people persist with AX.25 when more robust modes now exist?
Most of my attempts to using 300 baud AX.25 on 20m and 40m bands have been unsuccessful. That's just a personal observation. I know this stuff works just fine for a lot of other people. I'm probably

Re: 17 meters and 10 meters
Wow. I¡¯m really in a packet desert out in Utah. No wonder I¡¯m only rarely able to decode any AX.25 packets on HF. Sent: Wednesday, September 6, 2023 12:32 PM To: [email protected]; Alan Beck -
