I think so, but probably none of the ones I am involved with unless there are prior arrangements. I know any of our guys would be glad to help you with a demonstration, but the question would be who you could connect with at the time of the presentation. I think there are some guys that hang around 14.105 that do keyboard stuff but I have never worked with them personally so I can't tell you too much about them or what it would take to get into their BBS.
We handle quite a bit of bulletin traffic, but not too much personal mail any more. The internet guys have gotten into the business in a big way and they have no way to route personal mail so much of that kind of mail dies and the resulting frustration on the part of senders has caused almost the death of personal mail by packet unless you know the routes in advance. Sending it is easy...getting it delivered is very "iffy". I would be glad to help with your demo if we could determine a frequency and a time that would allow the connection. 73 Mark KQ0I Des Moines, IA --- Andrew O'Brien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Are any open to non BBS operators?
