[OKDXA] Access to packet spots

[RHunt at tulsacc.edu]

It's been a decade or so but I used to use HyperTerminal to make a simple 
link to the DX Cluster
URL. Can't recall if an IP number was required or not but it seems just 
the URL works. I used a
33.6 kbps dialup modem running at 26.4 mostly because we're too far from 
the central office for
DSL. Finally got cable a few years ago and the HyperTerminal link still 
works.  Try simply
clicking on Start, Run, entering   dxc.ab5k.net.ht  and see if it will 
make the link. I don't have
a dialup link to test. HyperTerminal is included in all Windows systems so 
see if that works
I'm assuming you have a phone in the shack.

[OKDXA] Access to packet spots






We are just far enough out of the city limits that we do not have access 
to high speed internet in any form.  We have been sufficing with our 
dial up speed of 26.4 or so for several years, and it is fine as long as 
I avoid downloads.

However, I would like to have access to packet spots out in the 
hamshack, which is in a separate building about 100' from the house.

This will date me, but is it even possible to access a cluster via 2 
meters in Northeast Oklahoma these days.  I'm sure Coy recalls our early 
days here, then Claremore, etc.  If 2 meter access is not available, 
does anyone have a suggestion?  Thanks in advance.

73, Ken K5KA
