I hope most of you have been able to read my packet radio FAQ posting.

I intend the FAQ to grow by bounds in the next few versions.  I 
decided to put out version 1.0 in it's current status to try to get 
some ideas from you net.readers. 

I would like to have as many comments about the FAQ as possible in
order to see what else needs to be included.  Right now on my
to-do list is to add:

A separate section with references (RTFM, right? :-) )
A list of magazines with packet radio.  
Organizations to join.  (Newsletters, etc)
Coordination Groups and user groups in various areas. (I need help here)
Where to get IP addresses for AMPR.
More definitions as I find them.
More FTP sites/mailing lists.
Add info about the AX.25/IP packet wormholes through Internet.
Add more networking schemes like TexNet/Flexnet/Pack-ten. (I really
    need help on this since I have never used them.)
Add info on baycomm.
Info on modems.
Info on fast modems.
DX Cluster info.  (Anyone have references in ASCII?)
Phone line vs. packet modems.
Packet BBS systems.

Now, what did I forget.... :-)

If anyone has any info that would help me out on any of the subjects,
I would be happy to have it.  Also, if anyone would like to volunteer 
to do any section, I will gladly include their submission.

Thanks.
