Yes, correct. But Estonia BBS is the first for public access.  It is
very long story about packet radio in the USSR. Right now there is a
net in Armenia for coordination of several projects.  Leo Labutin was
the first who open a packet link between Soviet Amateur Center and the
Institute for Automated Systems. Now we plan to continue these
experiments, but after we received a permission from Soviet PTT and
frequency.  (Not amateur frequency.)


Thanks,
Andrei
