[FADCA] LAN and BBS in Ft. Myers/Lee County

Wed, 11 Feb 2004 14:56:54 -0500

HI,

KF4HFR IS IN CHARLOTTE COUNTY
W4LX IS IN LEE COUNTY

BOTH WERE SET UP BY THE SAME PEOPLE AND RUN FBB AND BPQ.

I AM WORKING ON A REWORK OF THE OLD CABLES.

THE CONTACTS FOR LINKING FROM THE EAST COAST CAME JUST AFTER I ASSUMED
THE DUTIES AS SYSOP AND WAS TRYING JUST TO GET THE BBS BACK ON THE AIR. 
IT WAS TOO SOON TO ADD ANYTHING TO THE MESS.

IT IS HOPED TO GET A NEW SETUP WITH THREE PORTS ON THE COMPUTER (FOR 441,
220, 2M ) AND KISS MODE TNC'S.  SOMEONE REPLIED TO ME THAT KAM3+ HAD NO
PROBLEMS WITH MEMORY, THIS IN DIRECT CONTRADICTION TO INFORMATION I FOUND
ON THE WEB.  WHO IS RIGHT?  SINCE I HAD/HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE KAM, I
BELIEVE THE WEB REFERENCES.  BBS DOWN AT THE PRESENT BECAUSE OF THE KAM.

I KNOW OF NO TELENET ANYWHERE CLOSE, NOR PLANS FOR SUCH.
WE HAVE NO ACCESS TO A PHONE LINE AT THE EOC FOR CONNECTION TO OUR
SYSTEM.

I HAVE DOWNLOADED INFORMATION ON FPAC AND WILL STUDY IT AFTER I HAVE
FINISHED SOME STUDIES IN WHICH I AM INVOLVED.

IF ANYONE HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT KF4HFR, PLEASE CONTACT BOB WHO IS SYSOP.
IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS ABOUT W4LX, PLEASE CONTACT ME, TOM, KF4UTH, SYSOP.

W4LX WILL BE BACK ON THE AIR LATER TODAY - MORE TROUBLE WITH THE KAM.

I AM INTERESTED IN THE NODE AT LABELLE.  FUNNY THAT THE FIRST I HEARD OF
IT WAS THIS MONTH, ESPECIALLY IF IT WAS PUT UP TO REACH FORT MYERS. 
CLANDESTINE SURVEILLANCE? OF WHOM?  BY WHOM?

PLEASE LET PEOPLE KNOW THAT ED, N9AWP IS IN CHARLOTTE, NOT IN LEE COUNTY,
SO HE WOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH SETTING UP ANY KIND OF NODE HERE.  I
BELIEVE THAT HE HAS 'MOVED ON' IN RADIO AND IS NO LONGER ACTIVE ON
PACKET.  HE TURNED OVER HIS DUTIES TO BOB, WHO IS ALSO IN CHARLOTTE. 
THEY MAY FIND IT EASIER TO SETUP A TELENET NODE THERE.

MORE ON THIS SOAP OPERA LATER.

73,
TOM,KF4UTH
