I logged into W6IXU mailbox system via several repeaters. Later that day I connected with a local station with a living operator. I found it interesting and exciting. Now I'm thirsting for information on the current amateur digital network structure and how to use it. I would welcome any info operating tips, etc. My current packet station consists of a Heath HD-4040 TCN, a C-64 used as a 'terminal', and a Yeasu 726R transceiver. What are you out there using? Well, I'll keep this short for now until I find out if theres anyone listening. 73 DE WE6B +ROB+ IN CAMPBELL,CA. SK ***DISCONNECTED
