Re: Ham Radio and BBS

Thank you for that. I needed a non-technical explaination. Google was no help. Are you saying someone could talk over a Ham radio and the results could be posted on Dovenet? Would I be correct in saying that?
There is currently no ready-to-go solution that puts Synchronet "on the air" or in a position to receive anything via ham radio.
It would be possible to put your BBS on the air via packet radio (or some other digital mode) for computer-to-computer communication, but that would take some effort. There's no ready-made solution for that, but external things could be cobbled together.
As for someone "talking" and it being posted to DOVE-Net, do you mean speech-to-text? That's also conceivable, but would take considerable effort, and audio quality would probably make it pretty dodgy.
