Baycom + QST MX614 modem

I have scanned and zipped it to "http://www.rio.com/~kg7fu/qst0100.zip" (Since this is copywritten material, it will only stay on this site for a few days. This is a service to a few EU hams, as QST is not distributed to newsstands in most countries anymore, not an intentional breech of copyright laws.

I'm not going to re-post my modifications and suggestions, except for the most obvious; use ferrite beads, probably 43 material, on all the data, audio and control lines at the PCB or this thing will sing like a suckling pig just before a Luau!

Unless things have changed significantly, the computing power required to do *accurate*, MS, Tropo EME predictions is well beyond that of the average ham and his/her PC.

Now if APRS stations just reported operating frequencies you could hunt down that friend you were looking for or find someone in that grid square / county / country you needed, and actually have an idea if propagation is favorable for a contact!

HOWTO ax.25 + firewall [Was Re: Subject: sendmail + masq/ipfw solutions for multi-user system?]
Thanks for all the great replies on sendmail and DNS! I have some direction now, but still am confused about how to configure my lan vs. my ampernet. First, my lan is already working well, using 2.0.36 + ipfwadm + masq and 192.168.x.x addresses. We use a dial-on-demand ppp connection, bit it is usually up 24 hours a day. I could leave it this way or change to 2.2.x like my other Linux boxes on the lan. So, do I re-address all the workstations to 44.26.x.x and continue to run as normal? Do I use ip alising and give the ax.25 boxes secondary or prinmary 192.168 addresses? Do I use ipip and create dummy devices? Do I add a 2n nic to the firewall and route 44.26.x.x differently than 192.168.x.x? Second, I'd like sendmail or whatever MTA I end up with being able to handle connections to the internet as well as smtp via radio without too much effort. My guess is the key would be to decide first which scheme to use above. Thanks, - James S.

Perhaps I wasn't clear Does there exist a "how-to", examples or explicit instructions on how to use sendmail for radio amprnet, radio pbbs, local delivery and internet delivery ALL on the same box? The AX25-HOWTO was never going to cover that material. It is adequately covered in other HOWTO documents. Try the Networking and IP-Chains HOWTO's From what I see, the networking and ip chains howto's are meant for seasoned sysadmins and/or hardcore programmers. There just ain't much in the way of "english language" material for the non-programmer/non-nethead. Again, does there exist any docs on how to ip forward/gateway radio amprnet services with kernel 2.2.x? The domain.txt file, I think (it's been a good number of years since I ran NOS) is just the equivalent of the /etc/hosts file. It is. However, I can't seem to find any resources to utilize such information. The closest I've seen is the DNS-HOWTO, again does not provide any assistance for ham radio folks who don't have Ph.D's in net-speak or c++-speak. Can anyone tell me how to configure BIND so amprnet lookups work while not breaking real internet DNS? I personally think you'd be better off fixing the actual problem though (the DNS problem or whatever it actually is) than naiively working around it with manual name-address mappings. Ok, I'll bite. How do I fix it? One problem is my isp's DNS has an entry: Server: ns1.rio.com Address: 206.96.130.10 Non-authoritative answer: 0.1.26.44.in-addr.arpa name = crv.lan.ampr.org Authoritative answers can be found from: 44.IN-ADDR.ARPA nameserver = hamradio.ucsd.edu etc. But a traceroute from rio.com reveals no route to host, thusly: traceroute to 44.26.1.0 (44.26.1.0), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 gatekeeper (206.96.130.254) 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms snip 10 sdsc-gw.san-bb1.cerf.net (134.24.12.26) 406 ms 380 ms 439 ms 11 192.12.207.5 (192.12.207.5) 406 ms 471 ms 439 ms 12 muir-rs-backbone.ucsd.edu (132.239.254.11) 469 ms 386 ms 386 ms 13 ampr.org (44.0.0.1) 381 ms * 465 ms 14 * * * Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't address groups such as 192.168 and 44.0 considered "private" nets and technically aren't supposed to be routed via internet? Even if they were, the ampr.org docs clearly state that 44.26.1.0 is for "testing" and is not to be assigned. AND, why does the rest of the world know to route 44.26.1.0 to ucsd.edu/ampr.org, yet ampr.org doesn't have it? My local net just happens to be 44.26.1see what the problem is now?

I'm sure by the posts I see here that there are many more "Linux Newbies", new hams, hams new to packet and just plain old dumb hams like myself that would be more inclined to get heavily into ax.25 networking, instead of turned off, if it weren't for the lack of simplistic docs and negative responses from a few vocal, but harsh, hams-in-the-know. I have a myriad of great ideas, application deviations and enthusiasm for amateur packet. I also have a great deal of real-world RF experiences to share and relate to after being a broadcast engineer, microwave maintenance technician and been doing packet radio almost since it's inception. I would happily toss Linux ax.25 stuff for DOS or Windows if those platforms offerings would suit my needs.

Re: SuSe Linux v6.2 question
Check /etc/inetd.conf Try commenting out the default ftp service and uncommenting either the wu.ftpd or proftpd lines. One or the other only! Kernel ax.25 stuff and clx work fb now... jk - James S.

I got the SuSe Linux package installed with minimum strain, and am impressed that things that were extremely difficult to get properly configured in RH and other versions of Linux are now accomplished with a few keyclicks in YaST. Specifically I am talking about PPP for use in setting up a full time internet to amateur packet radio gateway in the Tacoma metropolitan area, something which has been a dream of mine for a number of years... Well, I found that once everything was installed that FTP appeared not to be enabled and/or configured... Referring to the SuSe Linux v6.2 manul, there is supposed to be a menu in YaST to set FTP to active, set permissions, set paths, etc However I have not been able to reach the menu in question. Can someone help me on this? How do I configure and enable FTP? I am stuck until I can turn everything on. Thanks for your consideration. 73, Gary, W7NTF

2 Soundcards with 2.2.x
With 2.0.36 adding a few lines to autoconf.h with a second soundblaster's settings gets it compiled and functional. How do you accomplish it with 2.2.x? James Kaplan KG7FU Eugene, Oregon
Re: ARRL Handbook on CD
ghostview, xpdf, acrobat reader and several other X apps do a fine job with .pdf's. Interesting note, .pdf is merely .ps with LZW compression. jk
