[GreenKeys] CNet system

[Larry Tighe]

I collected and rebuilt telephone switching systems.  From small step by 
step to moderate sized crossbar PBX's and CDO's. (community dial office)  It 
was a phase I went thru before the TTY infection.

The switcher club has been dialing into each other's switches by internet 
lately....they call it "CNet".  I don't know anything about how it 
works....I'm outta switching having filled the basement and two garages with 
working SxS, crossbar and XY switches...all tied together so I could call 
myself  LOL

Below, Art Bloom another switcher nut, suggests the CNet for TTY  OCD's like 
myself.  If anyone needs to understand how the CNet operates, contact Art 
for details.

Why TTY? It's old, it smells, it's noisy, it requires constant care, nobody 
appreciates it...oh...wait...that pretty much describes YOU, doesn't it?

Seriously, when you get them all fixed up and working, do you send and 
receive to other collectors over ham bands, or do you set up a landline 
connection with modems?  You could all subscribe to CNet and set up your 
TTY's the same way we Phone Phools are using the network for voice calls. 
I'm sure that if you can use modems to interconnect your TTY buddies, you 
could jump on CNet and combine the best of both worlds. Just a thought.
