Thats just it, it was not email! Besides, I do remember PLENTY of talk about the HF packet stations. The ARRL, in their infinite wisdom, decided "packet frequencies" on 20 meters to dip down to 14.095, a long established RTTY area. So many packet stations set up shop that they migrated down as low as 14.085 or even lower. Their never ending brrraaaapppp went on incessantly, regardless if anyone was using the freq. or not. And this is exactly what will happen with the WinLink fiasco. 73 Buddy WB4M >> >> Need a Digital mode QSO?
