To reference works of others, I am interested in written reports (web pages, online newspaper articles, e-book chapters, e-books, or else) related to the experience with using a ham radio software that can simulate a hardware node talking to another node, or something similar. In that way, the sources I reference to will become more visible after my book is published, so do not hesitate to suggest me reading anything that is available - including your own reports :-)) Also, I need information where to get an updated version of Paula G8PZT's PZTBBS (Xserv) software for DOS machines. Seems that she does not respond to emails anymore. I recently made a telnet to her GB7PZT bbs and noticed it runs XServ AX25/IP/PSTN Mail/File/Web Server/Gateway v410h (13/8/06). But I did not find a way to get a copy of that version to install it here. Finally, here you can see my test equipment: _____________ ____________________ VHF |MS DOS 5 comp| |MS Windows 2000 comp| TRX--TNC2--|BPQ4.08a, PZT| --- LAN --- | BPQ32 4.10n, FBB |-- I'net ant ------------- -------------------- YT7M-1 (BPQ) YT7MPB-3 (BPQ32) YT7M (PZTBBS) YT7MPB-4 (FBB) My plan is to replace Windows setup on the right with Linux - or to have an alternative testbed for Windows-based computer. At the moment I have here Ubuntu 9.10 as a dual-boot with Windows, and wonder what suggestions do you have about the opportunities for Ubuntu. Earlier I played with Mandrake 9.1 and LinFBB but did not try it on Ubuntu.
