Dave:
Your response is extremely helpful, and I appreciate it very much.
This will be an ongoing project, and probably won't even get started until
sometime in August, but I'm trying to at least get info on various options
that we will want to look into when the time comes.
Thanks again, and 73 from Tom Behler: KB8TYJ

Subject: Re: packet radio
Hi Tom,
I was active in packet radio from the mid 80's through the mid 90's. I had
a TNC-1 that I used with a dos computer running terminal software such as
Qmodem, procom, and Commo. I would assume that just like the tnc's of the
80's and the 90's the new breed of tncs will run using terminal software of
some kind. I can't speak to the accessibility of windows terminal software
but I assume that it can work or can be made to work. As far as accessible
tnc use with aprs or some of the relatively recently developed messaging
protocols I don't have much information. Back in the days when dos was
predominant it was extremely easy to use packet with speech software. I
hope this helps at least as a starting point for you. Good luck and please
keep us on the list informed on your progress.
