Packet Radio ndash What is it Introduction
Packet Radio had its beginnings back in 1978 when the Canadians authorized ASCII transmissions by Amateur Radio operators The US followed in 1980
Several Organizations were formed - including
- AMRAD - The Amateur Radio Research and Development Corporation (1975)
- TAPR - Tucson Amateur Packet Radio Corporation (1981)
- PPRS - Pacific Packet Radio Society (1982)
The commercial protocol X25 was modified for Amateur Radio use ndash resulting in what we know as AX25
Packet Radio ndash What is it Hardware Various versions of the TNC were developed starting
with the early unit from Canada in 1978 TAPR released a kit called the TNC1 (based on the Z80)
in 1983 In the following years many clones followed Several companies produced TNCrsquos ndash some based on
the TAPR TNC and some were entirely new designs Some companies that produced TNCrsquos are AEA (now
Timewave) DRSI (out of business) Kantronics MFJ PacComm - There are many more
Software (soundcard) defined TNCrsquos were developed Speeds are 300b and up - with 1200b used for most
lans 300b used mainly on HF
Packet Radio ndash What is it Firmware Software
With the introduction of AX25 development of BBS Network and Terminal software followed
BBS ndash AA4RE F6FBB MSYS W0RLI to name a fewNewest and still under development ndash BPQMail
Network ndash Many variations of Node Software Firmware (BPQ Flexnet Texnet Thenet Rose Fpac to name a few) Some reside in firmware and some in a PC
Terminal Software User interface ndash Many programs were developed some specific to a TNC type and some very generic
Packet Radio ndash What is it Typical Configurations BBS ndash The most common BBSrsquos are operated as
Personal or Full Service
- Personal BBS (PBBS) are used for sending receiving personal messages and usually reside in a TNC Some Full Service BBS sw will function as a Personal BBS
- Full Service BBSrsquos are PC based and provide many features such as routing of messages bulletins special handling have multiple ports compressed forwarding etc World wide the F6FBB amp BPQ sw are the most common
- Most Full Service BBS software is dormant - little or no development The exception to this is BPQMail still under development and expansion by G8BPQ
Packet Radio ndash What is it Typical Configurations
Network ndash A typical network consists of Node(s) Switch(s) connected together to facilitate passing traffic within and between Lans
Node or Switch ndash There are generally two configurations used ndash one without a PC and one with a PC
- Non PC consists of a number of TNCrsquos (stack) with the RS-232 ports connected together via either an active or passive matrix The diode matrix was more common
- PC based node or switch has a PC to handle all the switching routing info etc functions The TNC (usually operating KISS) mainly interfaces the PC to the radio

APRS ndash Probably the most used aspect of Packet Radio
- There are two basic modes of operation in APRS
1 ndash A sender of location data where one uses a radio antenna a TNC and optionally a GPS to transmit their location stationary or mobile
2 ndash A receiver of location data which displays the location as a text string or on a map
Reception can be RF or internet using web sites such as aprsfi or finducom

- Winlink uses a combination of RF and Internet

Packet Radio ndash What can you do with it There are many applications that Packet supports ndash
some of which are
- APRS This is by far the most popular mode today
- WINLINK Email over ham radio has both HF and VHFUHF modes
- Sedan
- DX Cluster
- BBS Send receive personal messages and read bulletins from all over the world
- Keyboard to Keyboard (KtK)
Packet Radio ndash What can you do with it
APRS ndash Probably the most used aspect of Packet Radio
- There are two basic modes of operation in APRS
1 ndash A sender of location data where one uses a radio antenna a TNC and optionally a GPS to transmit their location stationary or mobile
2 ndash A receiver of location data which displays the location as a text string or on a map
Reception can be RF or internet using web sites such as aprsfi or finducom
There are many different uses for APRS ndash tracking people things simple messages ndash google it and enoy
Packet Radio ndash What can you do with it
Winlink ndash Developed as a message handling system early in the 1980rsquos and evolved to email over ham radio
-Todayrsquos users include Boating RVrsquoing general email and EMCOMM ndash lots of emphasis here
- A MARS version is in use also
- Large attachments can be sent received
- Winlink uses a combination of RF and Internet
