It needs to be on a mobile platform due to the reasons of how       simple it is to triangulate sources, but getting my BBS to be a mobile       communications hub that can work with packet radio (AX.25) over shortwave       frequency in lieu of my dismal views of what the future may hold is precisely       what got me into BBSing and the stockpile of preparedness and survival       information that I've put onto my own system. Not to mention schematics for       dealing with jamming and other technologies that might come into play.              ---        þ Synchronet þ Tinfoil Tetrahedron BBS telnet or ssh -p 2222 to       tinfoil.synchro.net        * Origin: Time Warp of the Future BBS - Home of League 10 (1:340/400)    |
