[HamGateNJ] KY2D Intro from Morristown

[Jim Kutsch KY2D]

Hi Dan,

Brian was incorrect. I was never running anything except BPQ32. However,
there's no nailed up rout to KY2D-4 so it doesn't show up in the destination
tables. I used to run it on 144.930 and access was through WA2IMS but IMS
stopped working so I moved to 145.050 with access through W2LI-2. When it
was via WA2IMS, his node called KY2D-4 every 5 minutes so the white pages
were always refreshed and the route to KY2D-4 was propagated.

 

Try connecting to W2LI-2 then from there connect to KY2D-4.

 

And, if anyone knows how, or wants to help figure out how, I'd really like
to be able to set up a permanent link between W2LI-2 and KY2D-4 without
going to the hack of LI calling me every 5 minutes.

Hi Jim.

 

For about a year I used the N1URO node via telnet on net 44 to access the
Eastern Area Hub.  The node connects Net 44 TCP/IP to the AX.25 packet
network.  At some point I lost access to KY2D-4 via Net 44.  When I asked
Brian, he said it was because you changed software on the mailbox to
something that was not compatible.  I don't have more details than that.

 

However, from a user perspective, I could use Outpost Packet Message Manager
as a client and connect right over Net 44 to retrieve traffic as an
alternative to direct RF.  This was a very practical use of Net 44.

 

Good to see you on the list.

As for goals, I'd like to better integrate the RRI Digital Traffic Network
access into the NJ packet network so other digital traffic handlers could
reach the Eastern Area Hub. As more of a personal learning item, I'd like to
better understand the advantages of using an AMPRnet address and would like
to experiment with one.
