Hi my name is Dave (nickname is Wiggy) and live
in Bromley Kent UK,
My interest with radio was back in 1979 with
CB (Citizen's Band Radio);
in 1986 I was licensed with the
callsign G1WYG and G0WYG in 1995. My
first experience with digital modes was with RTTY and a spectrum
48k, I then heard about Packet radio and in late 1988 I started out
this time with a commodore 64 and digicom modem, sitting up half the
night chatting and typing away with one of my old mates Brian G7AML
(now G0NXL) Check out his website
Here
as the packet bug grew I decided to buy my first
PC and use the same digicom modem but modified to work on the PC
with Baycom software, then i was hooked the packet radio network
took off in a big way so I setup a network node called Wiggy (hence
the nickname) on multiple ports with 2 internal 4 port RLC100 cards
and external Tnc's, when I got my second PC the headaches really
started, networking the 2 computers one running the node with FBB
and BPQ (DOS) and the other running a Nos chatnode called sekent,
after more than 10 years on packet with a few blown up radios and
hard disk failures etc it was noticeable that the packet network was
becoming less popular so after a big decision I decided to close
Wiggy and sekent nodes down. With all the hardware lying around I
heard about UiView (APRS on 144.800) so I gave that a go after a few
years I closed the digipeater on UiView to make way for my new
venture Internet Linking.
Computers have been a part of the ham shack for
many years now for logging, cw, packet, and other digital modes, so
it was inevitable that amateur radio and the Internet should meet,
that sparked the interest in ham radio communication via the
Internet. A small group of pioneers have combined amateur radio and
cyberspace in a very direct way, creating new global gateways. DX
contacts are possible through local repeaters or simplex links and
conversely a distant repeater is available through your computer.
I did hold 6 NOV's (Notice
of Variation) for
voice-over-IP (VoIP internet linking), but now only
2 are active. |

| The link
on 70 cm is now back on air, as a experiment both interfaces
share the same com port and sound card, when you are connected
from the internet any QSO will TX and RX on either link
at the same time. you still can
use either link from RF to make a connection.
Hopefully
this will be stable. |
