Packet Radio has been connecting amateur radio operators digitally for decades, and it continues to offer plenty of opportunities for experimentation, learning and reliable data communications.
Whether you're rediscovering packet radio, building a modern network, or trying it for the very first time, this is the place to discuss all aspects of amateur radio networking.
Topics you might like to post about include:
If you're just getting started, don't hesitate to ask questions. Packet radio has a long history, but there are still plenty of active operators who are happy to help newcomers get up and running.
Likewise, if you've built an interesting node, revived an older system, or are experimenting with new networking ideas, we'd love to hear about your projects and experiences.
Share your setups, ask for advice, and help keep the spirit of experimentation alive.
73 and happy networking!
