  • Non-Internet FTN Transfer

    From Blue White@21:4/134 to Avon on Sun Mar 28 07:28:10 2021
    this is an area that has long interested me as well. its also one
    of the reasons i like the old ftn tech that bbs offers although
    unless we find non internet dependent ways to shift packets between
    nodes i fear any deliberate attempt by a hostile force to cut
    marine cables currently carrying most global net traffic would
    quickly silence this and any other ftn hobby network :-(

    Although it would not necessarily help if someone cuts cords
    somewhere, I do still maintain a dial-up node with Binkleyterm answer
    ing the calls. It does not currently have a Zone 21 address
    associated with it, but it always could.
