# Packet radio transmissions are carried over _amateur_ radio bands, altogether
# different than C.B.  If you contact your local amateur radio club, they

# is
##[JS=>RB]

There are some guys here that are into amateur radio and also operate a
"regular" BBS - I will make some enquiries.

# As far as your first question goes, packet radio operators can have a
# "direct"
# communication with each other, or they can access a BBS (which exists on a
# given
# frequency) and send/retrieve messages, etc.
##[JS=>RB]

That's truly amazing!  There must be heaps of problems though otherwise
why hasn't it taken off on a large scale - guess I'll soon find out <grin>.

Roger.
