Elmers List Formatting Standards
In order to standardize the Internet resource notation used in this
Directory, I've decided to adopt Uniform Resource Locator (URL) format
throughout. In addition to being a straightforward, human-readable,
format for specifying File Transfer Protocol (FTP) archives, Gopher
and World-Wide Web (WWW) servers, and Usenet newsgroups, it is also
amenable to formatting as hypertext links in Hypertext Markup Language
(HTML). For example, users viewing this document at designated
World-Wide Web Servers (see "How may I obtain the latest copy of the
Elmers List?" below) will see all URL's converted to hypertext links
on their WWW client. Rather than fumbling with the various conventions
of FTP, Gopher, WWW, and Usenet News software, the document or
directory referenced by a hypertext link is but one mouse-click (or
key-click) away.
While I'm happy to incorporate the latest and most popular
information-formatting standards into the documents that I maintain, I
really can't allow myself to be dragged into the role of a WWW
help-desk for all of the Internet. Please understand this when I
politely refer you to other Elmers, easily-obtainable on-line
documentation, or even local expertise such as resident gurus,
consultants, or help-desks at your school, company, or information
service provider.
The URL format is easily mapped into human FTP, Telnet, Gopher, and
Usenet News reader commands. For example:
ftp://ftp.cs.buffalo.edu/pub/ham-radio/README
Anonymous FTP to ftp.cs.buffalo.edu and get the file README under the
/pub/ham-radio directory.
gopher://oes1.oes.ca.gov:5555/
Access the Gopher root page at oes1.oes.ca.gov via non-standard port
5555 (if the standard Gopher port of 70 was used, the ":5555" part
would be replaced by ":70" or most likely not appear at all).
telnet://callsign.cs.buffalo.edu:2000/
Initiate a Telnet (remote terminal) session with
callsign.cs.buffalo.edu via non-standard port 2000 (if the standard
Telnet port of 23 was used, the ":2000" part would be replaced by
":23" or most likely not appear at all).
news:rec.radio.info
Access the rec.radio.info newsgroup on your Usenet newsreader from
your local news server.
URL's that start with:
http:
Are only accessible via WWW client software or "browsers".
For more information about URL formats, see:
http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/Addressing/Addressing.html
Disclaimer: While I have personally confirmed the accuracy of all
URL's through the Lynx WWW client, any referenced documents external
to this document are subject to future changes beyond my control. In
addition, with networks and their administration being what it is,
many services with up-to-date URL's may be temporarily unreachable.
Please consult with your local gurus, consulting staff, or help-desk
to confirm that it's a non-local problem, then ask the Elmer him or
herself (me in the case of URL's which appear outside of individual
entries). The currency and accuracy of URL's should be at least no
worse than that of the Elmers entries themselves (which are each
individually confirmed by me every 2 years, and updated within 1 month
on request of the Elmer).
_________________________________________________________________
A Brief Historical Overview
If there is any one constant in the changing state of the
communications art, it is that "Hams" (Amateur Radio Operators) have
always been on the forefront of it. Rumors abound where the term "Ham"
came from. Some of the more amusing are described in the list of
Frequently Asked Questions for this newsgroup.
Regardless of origin of the name, a "Ham" is universally recognizable
as one who experiments in radio and communications.
Whether it be constructing a low-power CW radio with vacuum tubes, or
designing TCP/IP packet networks, such experimentation has
historically spilled over into the mainstream such as was the case
with Howard Armstrong, who developed the regenerative oscillator and
FM radio, or General Curtis E. LeMay (K0GRL, W6EZV) who was
instrumental in making Single-Sideband the communications standard for
the Strategic Air Command (1946-1992, now reorganized into a joint
command called USSTRATCOM) and eventually the U.S. Air Force. Although
packet-switching techniques originated from DARPA (Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency) and the ARPANet, no one can deny the
tremendous influence that amateurs, including those within TAPR
(Tucson Amateur Packet Radio), have had in demonstrating the viability
of TCP/IP and AX.25 communications via radio links. The efforts of
AMSAT (the Amateur Satellite Corporation), including the development
of many ham satellites and the low-orbiting Microsats (communications
satellites no bigger than a breadbox that use store-and-forward packet
techniques), have certainly advanced the state-of-the-art in
communications, one of the defined purposes of the Amateur Radio
Service, as recognized by international treaty.
_________________________________________________________________
What is an Elmer?
Since in many cases hams are writing "the book", there is often no
"book" or other established reference for a beginner to refer to.
Traditionally, information has been passed on from ham to ham via
word-of-mouth. Like many of the traditional crafts, a variation of the
Master-Apprentice system has emerged, the Elmer-Novice relationship.
Called "Elmers" because they are usually older and wiser, having the
benefit of many years in the hobby, including several failed projects,
and an electric shock or two, they have traditionally been the
mainstay of amateur radio, and the source of many new hams,
particularly those interested in working on emerging technologies.
Even more importantly, Elmers provided an outlet for the impatient
newcomer who wanted "to know everything, and right away." Faced with
such a request, a good Elmer will smile and proceed to lead the novice
through some project or operating experience. Several hours, days, or
weeks later, the novice would have his answers, but would have earned
them. Even better, the sense of accomplishment would boost the
novice's confidence and nudge him or her down the road to being a
model, experienced ham operator.
Many present hams feel that such an experience is missing today. In
today's hustle-bustle world, the response to such natural curiosity
and desire to learn is, more often than not, "I'm too busy" or "RTFM."
As a result, the quality of new hams declines and the knowledge and
operating habits they develop in their first formative months and
years leave much to be desired. And the very same hams who claim that
they "can't understand the new generation" also, in almost the same
breath, lament about the "decline of amateur radio."
_________________________________________________________________
What is an Elmer Today?
An Elmer today is of any age, male or female, who has some expertise
and is willing to share it with beginners. Elmers don't even need to
be licensed amateurs, just people with knowledge in some area of
electronics or communications technology.
_________________________________________________________________
How do I become an Internet Elmer?
With the ever-widening scope of the Internet, the amateur radio
newsgroups on Usenet, and now the World-Wide Web, the potential for
Elmers to share their knowledge to a wide audience has never been
greater. To that end, I maintain a list of such Elmers. Volunteers may
register via my formatted, on-line, World-Wide Web Registration Form:
http://www.novia.net/~pschleck/elmers/register.html
I would prefer that you register using the above form (which not only
ensures that nothing is omitted, but also makes adding your entry much
easier by automatically converting it to HTML). However, volunteers
who are not yet on the Web are also quite welcome, and may register by
writing me at elmers-...@novia.net with their name, amateur radio
callsign(s) (if any), E-mail address, and area(s) of expertise.
URL-format pointers to resources they maintain, such as WWW home
pages, FTP archives, mail servers, or mailing lists, would also be
quite welcome. The list has gotten large enough that there should be
plenty of suitable examples to model your entry after. If you need
some further assistance formatting your entry, drop me a line and tell
me a bit about yourself. Ironically, sometimes the best Elmers write
to me saying, "I'm not an expert, but..."
I have set up an administrivia mailbox for correspondence related to
this list (elmers-...@novia.net, the default Reply-To: of this
message when posted to Usenet News). I would prefer that all such
correspondence be directed to that address. In addition to saving it
into a special folder, my incoming E-mail filter will also send you an
automated return-receipt.
Also, an unfortunate increase in the amount of unsolicited junk-mail
that I receive (often dozens of messages _every day_) has forced me to
become much more ruthless about filtering incoming E-mail. While I can
guarantee that I will read all mail sent to elmers-request before the
next month's posting of the list, mail sent to pschleck may not only
not get reviewed for some time, my incoming mail filter (procmail) may
even throw it away if it can't be automatically categorized as
originating from known, friendly senders or have known, welcome
keywords in the headers ("Elmer" is obviously one of those keywords).
Those desiring a more extensive list, or who need more specific
assistance, are encouraged to contact Rosalie White, WA1STO,
Educational Services Manager at the American Radio Relay League, 225
Main St., Newington, CT 06111 or via electronic mail addressed to
rwh...@arrl.org.
_________________________________________________________________
How may I obtain the latest copy of the Elmers List?
There are currently 6 ways of obtaining the Elmers List. Any site at
least reachable by Internet E-mail can use the Mailing-List or
Mail-Server options:
World-Wide Web (WWW):
This is the recommended method for accessing the Elmers list, as it
allows this resource to be viewed as hypertext. The home site at
www.novia.net features immediate updates each month, hypertext-linked
subject and geographic indexes, keyword searching, and registration
and feedback forms. The other two sites use automatically-converted
versions of the Usenet news articles, but are still usable,
particularly if you are outside North America. The site marked with an
asterisk also offers Wide-Area Information Service (WAIS) index
searching by keyword for all Usenet News FAQ's:
* http://www.novia.net/~pschleck/elmers/
* http://www.lib.ox.ac.uk/internet/news/faq/rec.radio.amateur.misc.h
tml
* http://www.cs.ruu.nl/cgi-bin/faqwais *
(_Note:_ Because of maintenance problems - FAQ documents not being
promptly updated in particular - the sites at Ohio State and Smart
Pages are no longer recommended for accessing a current copy of the
Elmers List and have been removed from the above list.)
see also the newsgroups under comp.infosystems.www.* (I haven't listed
URL's for all of the newsgroups under this hierarchy as there are now
about a dozen of them (!!!).)
Usenet News:
This was the original distribution medium for the Elmers list. It
continues to be supported for users who cannot access the World-Wide
Web. Since the document uses URL's throughout, the news article
version may also be viewed as hypertext via some mail and news
readers. The latest copy of the list can be found in the news articles
with the Subjects of _"Amateur Radio: Elmers Resource Directory
[A-*]," "Amateur Radio: Elmers Resource Directory [*-*],"_ and
_"Amateur Radio Elmers Resource Directory [*-Z]"_ (The * represents a
wildcard character, as the need to split the list evenly, as well as
keep all parts under the 64K message limit for Usenet, requires that I
adjust the split occasionally). Since the list is cross-posted to the
following newsgroups:
* news:rec.radio.amateur.misc
* news:rec.radio.info
* news:rec.answers
* news:news.answers
on the first Monday of each month, with an expiration date 6 weeks
into the future, there should always be a copy available at most news
sites. Check your newsreader documentation for information about
reading previously-read articles or articles that are "threaded" to
this one. Also complain to your local news administrator (E-mail to
"news" or "usenet" on your local host) if your local news server is
configured to ignore Expires headers (and thus prematurely delete the
articles) in worthwhile, mostly moderated, information newsgroups like
those listed above.
Anonymous FTP:
If your site is directly connected to the Internet, you may retrieve
the latest copy via File Transfer Protocol (FTP) from the following
sites:
* ftp://ftp.novia.net/customers/pschleck/elmers/
* ftp://ftp.cs.buffalo.edu/pub/ham-radio/
* ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/
* ftp://ftp.uu.net/usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/
Internet Gopher:
The latest copy of the list should be available from the following
Gopher sites:
* gopher://jupiter.sun.csd.unb.ca/
* gopher://gopher.univ-lyon1.fr/
* gopher://ftp.win.tue.nl/
* gopher://gopher.win.tue.nl/
see also news:comp.infosystems.gopher
Mailing-List:
Since the list is cross-posted to rec.radio.info, the latest copy may
be obtained from the mailing-list gateway for that newsgroup (along
with many other informational articles about radio) when it is
published each month. To subscribe, send E-mail to:
list...@ucsd.edu
and in the BODY (not the Subject) of the message, write:
subscribe radio-info
The server may not be able to determine your return address. In that
case write:
subscribe radio-info (your E-mail address)
You should get an acknowledgement very shortly.
Mail-Server:
If you don't want to read through the entire gateway of
rec.radio.info, or want a copy of the list right away, send E-mail to:
ftp...@ftp.novia.net
and in the BODY (not the Subject) of the message, write:
open
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/README
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/index/subject
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/index/geographic
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/list/part1
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/list/part2
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/list/part3
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/list/part4
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/list/part5
get /customers/pschleck/elmers/diff
Alternatively, send E-mail to:
mail-...@rtfm.mit.edu
and in the BODY (not the Subject) of the message, write:
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/README
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/index/subject
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/index/geographic
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/list/part1

send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/list/part3
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/list/part4
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/list/part5
send usenet/news.answers/radio/ham-radio/elmers/diff
and the latest copy of the list should be sent to you E-mail within 24
hours (the mail-server uses batch priority to reduce system demand).

j...@febo.com
http://www.febo.com/
My primary interests are in packet radio network building
(particularly higher speed stuff) and TCP/IP. I've got quite a lot of
info on using the Kantronics D4-10 19.2kB radios, as that's the
hardware we've been struggling with here.
I'm now working heavily with Linux, and help run a TNOS/Linux BBS, and
a Linux native-AX.25 switch. Although I'm not "the world's greatest
authority" on either, I'd be happy to help folks with questions to the
extent I can.
I've developed some experience with full-duplex packet repeaters. I've
built 2 19.2 repeaters, and am working on a 9600 Baud one now.
My World-Wide Web Page above has a reasonable set of resources for
digital networking, including HTML versions of some of my work, sample
configuration files for Linux AX.25, and some Linux software tools, as
well as the Ohio IP address coordination info.
I've just finished writing a book on TCP/IP that TAPR will publish
(hopefully) by the end of the year. It'll be called _Networking
Without Wires_ and is a completely rewritten, and greatly expanded,
version of the old _IntroNOS_ document I wrote several years ago. In
the meantime, I've made the old _IntroNOS_ available in HTML format on
my World-Wide Web Page above.
TAPR (Tucson Amateur Packet Radio) has formed a special interest group
to discuss issues of regional packet networking (Net-SIG). As a
result, the TAPR net-sig mailing list was born, and is now ready for
operation.
This list is <not> intended to replace any of the existing
packet-related mailing lists. Its purpose is provide a medium for
communications among those interested in packet radio networking, both
dealing with technical issues and political/regulatory ones. We'll
discuss things like how the potential 219MHz band will fit into the
networking picture, how to link areas using different networking
schemes, how to set network parameters, etc. The list's charter will
be posted there regularly.
The address of the list is net...@tapr.org and you can subscribe by
sending mail to list...@tapr.org with the text "join netsig".
Apart from subscribing to the list, you can contact me for further
details about the Net-SIG (including upcoming conferences).

Newington, CT 06111 USA | my doing so. -- Samuel Johnson
American Radio Relay League (ARRL) Webmaster
The American Radio Relay League is pleased to announce the startup of
ARRLWeb, your League's new HQ-based World-Wide Web site, at the URL
http://www.arrl.org/
ARRLWeb will serve as an essential Internet resource for active hams,
carrying ARRL news, details on upcoming hamfests, conventions and
Amateur Radio examinations, the ARRL Publications catalog, information
of ARRL membership benefits and services, and more.
In inaugurating this new service, the League thanks Scott Ehrlich,
WY1Z, and the other Boston Amateur Radio Club volunteers who've worked
since December 1994 to keep ARRL up and coming on the Web via the ARRL
home page they installed and maintained at oak.oakland.edu. Their
volunteerism helped show us that upgrading our Internet connection to
a level that allowed on-campus Web service would be essential to
ARRL's mission of serving Amateur Radio.
Your comments, criticism and suggestions on how to make ARRLWeb bigger
and better are _essential_ to its ongoing success, so please drop by
and say hello!

server documentation at:

Well, I've been talking about it for years. Those of you that have
talked with me via E-mail know that. But this time I've actually
started on my rewrite of the callsign server at Buffalo. And I've
finally got a design that I'm happy with. The new searching
capabilities are going to be *much* improved over the current system.
I'll be getting rid of the bugs in the current telnet system and
making it available to more people. Also coming is a WWW front-end for
web surfers. Time to step into the 90s.
Part of the rewrite is an entire reorganization of the database
look-up system. The old system was very specific to the FCC database
format because that's all that was available when it was written (yes,
the server is very, very old). But now there are a number of databases
floating around the net for different countries and I am rewriting the
system to be more flexible and to accommodate a variety of formats and
search types.
In doing so, I'll have the ability to add data for many more
countries. That is, of course, if I have the data. In order to do this
I need help. I need to get in touch with all people that have access
to databases from countries other than the US. The more up-to-date
these databases are, the better. If you have access to a database and
would be willing to donate a copy to the callsign server for everyone
to use, please contact me. A lot of people would genuinely appreciate
it.
The callsign server has become remarkably popular on the net and this
has happened because the community has contributed so much to it over
the many years it's been running. I have heard stories of reunions
with old classmates, stories of silent-keys that have been remembered,
and stories from blind hams doing simple look-ups of other hams, all
possible because of the server. Congratulations to the community for
making this system so useful.
Work on this project has been delayed such that its completion time is
somewhere in the indefinite future. In the meantime you can access the
current server.
Please direct all other feedback, submissions and administrivia
regarding these services to my E-mail address above.

is great fun. I have put together PC's and help other people with

ARC at University of Maryland, Baltimore County. During the winter and
summer, I am in New Jersey. I am active in ARES/RACES/NTS and local

into the hobby of Amateur Radio, particularly in the interests of
Public Service and Disaster Management.

I've been a ham since 1933. I taught electronics, AC, DC, and radar
principles/theory at the U.S. Army Signal Corps School at Fort
Monmouth, NJ during World War II. I was chief engineer at KDB in Santa
Barbara, CA from 1946 to 1951. I was engineer and technical director
at NBC TV studios in Hollywood and Burbank from 1951 to 1982. I have
one student now going for his General and prefer to teach the overall
picture. I have done little or no benchwork on new equipment in the
last 15 years. I'm still learning digital theory and techniques, but
boards filled with chips do not evoke a sense of familiarity or
recognition. I'm also still learning about the Internet.

GRAPES 56 kBaud Packet Radio Modems
I'm not an official representative of the Georgia Radio Amateur Packet
Enthusiasts Society (GRAPES), but I am in contact with them, and have
experience using their 56 kBaud radio modems. At the very least, I can
forward requests I can't handle to the proper people.
The Proceedings of the 6th Computer Networking Conference has a paper
by WA4DSY explaining the theory and practice of the 56 kBaud radio
modem. (I think it's the 6th, I don't have my copy handy.)
GRAPES furnishes instructions for modifying a TNC2 to drive the modem,
but there are better solutions. The Ottawa PI card and the Gracilis
PacketTwin card are two good solutions. Of course they are PC bus
cards. If you need standalone capability, the Kantronics Data Engine
can handle it, as can the incredible Gracilis PacketTen. PacComm
claims their new Sprint TNC can, too (PacComm now also manufactures
the Gracilis cards under license and you can get them either from them
or from Gracilis direct).
WA4DSY has interfaced raw telco codecs to the modems and done "digital
voice" while mobile. It works quite well.
If you want information on the RF modem (full document sets are $20
US, creditable towards a later order) write to GRAPES at
GRAPES, Inc
P.O. Box 636
Griffin, GA 30224-0636
USA
GRAPES is a volunteer networking organization. There's no phone
number, and turnaround on info requests may be slower than when
dealing with commercial outfits. Please cut the volunteers a little
slack.

I am available most days; work from home. I am especially interested
in teaching the practical side of ham radio technology. I will help
troubleshoot kits, old radios, etc., but will expect the new or
prospective ham to pitch in.
Expertise gained from over 40 years of ham radio and almost as many
years in broadcast engineering.

I am a practicing electronics engineer (for over 35 years) with
expertise in solving problems in the design of linear circuits, audio
signal processors, low frequency (DC to 10 MHz), low noise, field
effect devices, power supplies, batteries, and similar analog
situations. I'd be glad to assist others in the solution of their
electronic problems in these and tangential areas. I started in ham
radio as a kid in the 50's, vacuum tubes, motor generators, and most
everything related to WWII surplus equipment. Was a design engineer at
Texas Instruments for several years in the heyday of discrete devices
and linear integrated circuits, mostly for military and surveillance
use. My present concentration is toward digital telephonic
communications. Have now gotten pretty familiar with use of the
Internet. I guess it goes without emphasis that my capability goes
beyond the areas I listed as being most competent, but I could be a
resource you may apply as you feel my experiences would be helpful.

* Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) matters
* RF Exposure Safety/Regulations
* Equipment Testing
My survey of automotive EMI problems is mostly complete. The results
are in September 1994 QST, including warranty and customer service
information for most automobile manufacturers (many of whom have
published installation guidelines).
I am also continuing to pursue more formal contacts and
standards-making through the EMR and EMI Standards Committee of the
Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), of which I am a member.
Copies of General Motors installation guidelines are available. Saturn
allegedly has a video on mobile installation, but none of the dealers
seem to know about it. I have a call into one of my low friends in
high places. :-)
If anyone would like a copy of the GM installation guidelines, send a
9X12" SASE with two units of postage *and* a specific request for the
"GM Installation Guidelines" to the ARRL Technical Department
Secretary, 225 Main St, Newington, CT 06111, USA. A copy has been
reprinted in the ARRL book -- Radio Frequency Interference -- How to
Find It and Fix It.
EMI/RFI Resource List and RFI Tips package available. A business SASE
with 98 cents postage is appreciated. Please specify the desired
documents in your correspondence.
The FCC has released the results of a telephone interference survey
just completed.
If you would like a copy of the survey, which includes a list of
telephone models checked, send an SASE with two units of first class
postage to the Technical Information Service at ARRL HQ.
Alternatively, you may obtain an electronic copy from the ARRL Info
Server below.
If leakage from your local Cable TV operator is interfering with the
Amateur Radio Service, it is in violation of the provisions of Part 76
of the FCC regulations.
I would first direct the problem toward the cable company system
engineer or service manager. Chances are the "front-line" people who
answer the phone don't know what you are talking about.
If this is not effective, contact me here at ARRL HQ. I can put you in
contact with our liaison to the National Cable Telecasters
Association. This liaison will help your cable operator understand
their responsibilities.
For CATV interference problems in general, I recommend you obtain our
Radio Frequency Interference Book. If you are a League Member, you can
also get a copy of the ARRL Technical Information Service info package
on CATVI -- "EMI/RFI - CATV" by sending a LARGE SASE with 3 stamps on
it to the ARRL Technical Department Secretary, 225 Main St, Newington
CT 06111, USA. This package is a reprint of an article I wrote for
Communications Technology -- the Journal of the Society of Cable
Television Engineers. We submitted it to "their" journal because we
felt that it would carry more weight with the cable companies.
If you have any questions after you have read the material, contact me
here at HQ. I can usually get back to you within a few days to offer
some additional help.
Many EMI/RFI files are also available from the ARRL Info Server. See
Mary Carcia's entry for more information.
ARRL Technical Information Service Coordinator (t...@arrl.org)
The ARRL Technical Information Service (TIS) is a valuable membership
benefit that helps hams find answers to difficult technical questions.
The answer to a ham's most common technical questions can be found in
one of the many books about Amateur Radio. Folks who call or write to
ARRL TIS staff are often referred to one of these books or to a past
magazine article.
However, most hams find that the fastest way to get the answer is to
do their own research. Publication catalogs often talk about what
kinds of information are available in different books. A few good
books will answer the vast majority of questions as well as enhance a
ham's knowledge and enjoyment of this fascinating hobby.
Magazines are also a superb technical reference. An annual index of
articles appears in the December issue of QST and other magazines.
These indexes will usually have an article or two (or six) about a
particular topic. If an older QST or QEX article is not available
locally, the ARRL Technical Department Secretary can provide a copy
for a small fee. Back issues are also available from the QST
Circulation Department.
The ARRL Technical Information Service is a valuable source of
information and research for questions that cannot be answered by
other means. ARRL TIS has information packages and bibliographies that
are available on request to answer most technical questions.
For those who want to know if something has been previously published
on a particular subject, TIS can also assist with research to locate
this information. TIS also helps locate companies that sell hard to
find parts or supplies used in our hobby.
Many TIS files are also available via the ARRL Info Server. See Mary
Carcia's entry for more information.
See Jon Bloom's entry for information about the ARRL World-Wide Web
Home Page.

I am a Civil Engineer by training and a DX'er by choice. My Elmer
taught me how to work pile-ups and how to build antennas, having put

up. I don't climb anymore, but have a lot of info. I like working on
antennas and have several big Moseleys up in the air. It would be
great to pass on what I have learned, as we are not all born knowing
how to do everything, and the older I get, the smarter my father gets.

the rec.radio.amateur.* Working Group mail list, formerly maintained
by Ian Kluft, KO6YQ. In addition, a new mailing list devoted to
homebrewing tube transmitters and receivers ("Glowbugs," a sort of

With monthly costs for Net access at $350 US/month and telephone line
charges of $50 US plus, we are not getting rich. The fee was set after
much consultation and wrangling, and was designed to cover the costs

I am 36 years old, have been a ham for 22 years, and currently hold an
Extra class amateur license. I got my first ticket when I was 14 years
old, thanks to my Elmer who is now a silent key.
I am an instructor for amateur radio classes, Novice through General,
and teach CW at least once per year. I am also the VE team liaison for
the TEARA VE team, and test monthly in Smithfield, NC.
I maintain a number of repeaters from 10 meters through 900 MHz
including ATV. I build a lot, and enjoy restoration/construction of
vacuum tube amateur gear.
I enjoy ragchewing and DXing, with about 75% of my operating time on
HF spent on CW. I also enjoy weak signal and FM operation on 6, 2,
1.25m, 70cm, and 33cm. I am experimenting on 23cm and 10 GHz.
I maintain a number of sites, some of which are related to amateur
radio. The URLs are:

I was Communications Officer and former unit Landstation Bluebird 284,
1980-87. Statistically, Landstations are relatively rare. A land
station in CAP is an HF-capable station operating from both mobile and
permanent locations as needed. As a land station, I checked into
several regional nets for the Missouri Wing of the CAP. I am familiar
with the CAP emergency protocol as well as MARS and ARRL. Also, I have
extensive teaching experience for Novice to General levels and
currently am a teacher.

I am an Advanced class operator, working on Extra. I work
professionally as a manager of a computer services department in a
large hospital system with more than 12 years experience in PC and
Host Systems networking, I hold a degree in Electronics Engineering,
as well as many hours in Computer Science Engineering. I operated a
land-line BBS for 8 years, and now maintain a packet mail drop on
145.01 MHz. I maintain the TriCounty Amateur Radio Club (TCARC) of
North Texas home page on the web:
http://www.why.net/home/kb5ylg/tcarc/index.html
and am the 1996 President of the TCARC. I am also the appointed
Emergency Coordinator for the City of Azle for Tarrant County RACES.
I like to give talks to Amateur Radio Clubs, school groups, Scouts,
and similar groups, mainly about Amateur Radio topics. Recent
presentations I have done include Field Day preparation for clubs,
Computers and Ham Radio, Building Your First Dipole. I'm open to
presenting other topics as well. I also help local amateurs to prepare
their own presentations and talks.
I am a Baptist minister, and would be delighted to administer a Ham
Radio theme wedding! <grin> I would also provide ministerial services
for Ham related special events.
I will also provide free Novice/Tech licensing instruction for groups
of 5 or more in the Tarrant/Parker/Wise County region of North Texas.
Typically this involves about 18 hours of lecture, and some self study
on the parts of the students. I'll do this free for nonprofit
endeavors.
P.S. I monitor 146.98 Boyd repeater while commuting, and you might
find me working HF CW just about any time.

High-Performance Software Modem Project
Recently I've been working on a prototype SQPSK (staggered quadrature
phase shift keyed) modem for the amateur satellite channel. This modem
is implemented totally in software running on a PC with an ordinary
(non-DSP) Soundblaster card. It runs at 1200 bps and fits into a SSB
transceiver bandwidth.
I've made good progress and have put some info up on my web page about
it, including an audio file to show what it sounds like in noise when
the signal is still copyable, available from:
http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/ham.html
Watch that page for an announcement of when I actually release the
code, which I plan to integrate into KA9Q NOS.
Spread Spectrum
I've been trying to answer the question of consequences of promoting
relatively wide-band digital modes on band occupancy and throughput
(i.e., What gets optimized? Are there tradeoffs in quality vs.
quantity?) in the context of the spread spectrum rules debate, but I
think it needs to be a much wider discussion. See my reply comments to
the FCC on this issue:
http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/papers/index.html
(See also Steve Bible for more information on Spread Spectrum)
[_Editor's Note:_ I'm honored by the presence of many advanced-level
Elmers in this directory, including Jeffrey Angus, Gary Coffman, and
now Phil Karn. Phil has graciously agreed to appear in this directory
for the purpose of elmering and technical exchange for the advanced
topics listed above. As with all of my Elmers, please respect their
time by only seeking assistance from them for the topics under which
they are listed. There are many Elmers willing to answer more
beginning-level packet radio questions, including basic questions
about IBM PC hardware, TCP/IP and NOS. Consult the "IBM PERSONAL

I'm with the Team Eifel ARS located in Bitburg Germany. We are a club
primarily set up for American Servicemen and Women in the Eifel Region
of Germany. We provide ARRL VEC test sessions and help individuals,
regardless of nationality, gain a U.S. license. This is accomplished
by providing study materials and teaching. We also provide assistance
in obtaining German Reciprocal licenses.
I have a fair background in packet, a general knowledge of satellites,
and I'm fairly knowledgeable in hiding antennas.

Author of the QRZ! Ham Radio CDROM
I am interested in receiving amateur-radio-related public-domain
and/or shareware programs, data bfiles, frequency lists, etc., that
would make a useful edition to the QRZ! CDROM. Can help arrange volume
discounts for clubs and groups, and will donate copies of QRZ! to
qualifying non-profit organizations. Send E-mail or call +1 (602)
483-2036.
We now have the QRZ! FTP archive and QRZ! WWW server online, 24 hours
a day. Our connection is via a T1 line so you should get pretty decent
file transfer times.
We've got about 7,000 files online, including radio mods, software,
most everything imaginable. We are also accepting uploads of all ham
radio related material.
Feel free to stop by and have a look:
* ftp://ftp.qrz.com/
* http://www.qrz.com/ (WWW interface to the FTP archive as well as a
Callsign database server)
Authors of ham radio shareware programs, data files, mods, etc., are
invited to contribute their materials to the QRZ! anonymous FTP server
above.
I would also like to thank those who have volunteered in helping port
the QRZ! source code to a wide variety of platforms. In the next
edition, we'll have support for DOS, Windows, OS/2, Windows NT, Sun,
NeXT, SGI, Linux, AIX, and HP/UX executables, directly on the disk.
Notably not mentioned is Macintosh, which so far has been a bit
troublesome to put together. If anyone who can program in 'C' on a
Macintosh would care to volunteer, please let me know. Although there
is an experimental Mac interface at this time, I'd like to make it an
officially-supported platform.
The QRZ! Callsign/E-mail Registry now contains over 4100
callsign-to-E-mail-address listings and is growing daily.
We have a WWW page where you can input your E-mail address directly
into the QRZ! Callsign Database, where it will be published on both
CDROM and on the Internet. When you use this page, your E-mail address
is made instantly available to the online database.
Everyone is encouraged to check in and add their E-mail address to the
server. There are no charges or listing fees, and it's free to all
radio amateurs. The procedure takes only a second, and you are only
asked to supply your callsign and E-mail address.
Register your E-mail address today!
We're pleased to announce that the online FCC database at qrz.com is
now updated nightly from the FCC with fresh information.
According to FCC rules, if you've just passed your first test, you can
begin operating as soon as your callsign shows up in the online
database.
Please pass on any ideas, suggestions, comments, etc., to my E-mail
address above.

I have scratch-built all my antennas for all bands, written antenna
programs, and experimented with many types of antennas over the past
38 years. I have been a ARRL VE for 5 years now, as well as team
leader. I started in computers by building the Altair in about 1968,
later switched to Radio Shack. In 1982, I started assembling Clones,
and still do to this day (for a living). I have written code in Basic,
Quick Basic and C.
I have built power supplies, both low-voltage-high-amperage and
hi-voltage-low-amperage. I have wound my own transformers, one of
which still runs my VHF station after 20 years of use.
It is very hard to pin-point what one knows, as we are constantly
learning. Also, we must remember the old adage, "USE IT OR LOSE IT."

I have a large collection technical manuals. Copies are available for
the cost of duplication and postage. THIS NOT A BUSINESS. It is done
as a courtesy to those needing assistance.
I lecture and conduct workshops on the subject of ElectroMagnetic
Interference, primarily related to problems encountered in the
Clinical (Hospital) environment. This is a program based on papers of
which I am the principal author published in journals related to
Biomedical Engineering. Related to this activity, I have and use
signature analysis equipment and, depending on area and time, am
available to assist in location and identification of sources of
severe interference to radio amateur activities.

Dayton, Ohio E-mail Elmers
Sponsored by the Miami Valley (Ohio) FM Association (MVFMA):
http://www.febo.com/
The Dayton E-mail Elmers service allows new or prospective hams in
Dayton and Southwestern Ohio, or even experienced amateurs who are
venturing into a new aspect of the hobby, to send an E-mail request
for assistance. Volunteer on-line Elmers then can provide a response
in the "Elmer" tradition of mentoring new or less-experienced hams.
Today, many hams prepare for their license exams through classroom
programs, and the individual Elmer's touch isn't as common as it once
was. The E-mail Elmer service is an attempt to restore this long
tradition. The MVFMA hopes that the initial E-mail exchange will be
the start of an ongoing Elmer relationship in the best tradition of
Amateur Radio."
Hams may use the E-mail Elmer service simply by sending an E-mail
message to:
el...@febo.com
and posing the ham radio question they'd like to have answered. Users
will get a machine-generated confirmation, and within a few days, they
will get a response from one or more of the volunteer Elmers.
For more information, or to volunteer as an E-mail Elmer, contact me
at my phone number or E-mail address above.

I specialize in developing growth in volunteer organizations and have
published and made public presentations on this subject.
I have written and published training/educational curriculums for
Novice, and Tech Plus amateur radio licenses. Of interest is the fact
that amateurs licensed through my courses are very likely to upgrade
as evidenced by the high number of hams in the Lawton, Oklahoma area
that hold Extra Class licenses.
I organized and conducted a SAREX in southwest Oklahoma that involved
over 3,000 students in 21 schools in seven cities of southwest
Oklahoma. The SAREX consisted of an essay contest with the winners
being able to ask questions of the astronauts while they orbited the
earth. The live SAREX was broadcasts over the Lawton, Oklahoma Public
School systems cable television to the public in southwest Oklahoma.
More recently I have been involved in securing building permits in
Florida to put up amateur radio towers in this highly restrictive
State.

I am very lucky in that I earn my living in radio communications, so
my expertise is fairly broad (but not focused on amateur techniques
only):
* Modulation types - FSK, PSK, MSK
* Error control - various types of ARQ and FEC systems
* RF - Antennas, HF propagation
* Networking - TCP/IP over HF
* Frequency bands: VLF, LF, HF, VHF, UHF, SHF
This is a very brief synopsis of the areas that I have dealt with over
the years. I always enjoy discussing and researching a communications
problem so if you don't see it listed above drop me a line anyway,
especially if you happen to be in Europe.

I am the Assistant Principal at Estill County High School in Irvine,
KY and have been in the education business for the past 23 years. I
enjoy helping people earn their ham radio license privileges. I have a
test team with the WCARS group and have been testing for a good number
of years. We have tested over 300 hams during the last three years.
I also have been in the repeater business since 1973 (146.820) and
have held a ham license longer that any other resident of Estill
County Kentucky. I am the fourth ham to be licensed in our community,
the other three have either become Silent Keys or moved from our
county. I am very proud to have held a ticket for almost thirty years.
I hope through my experience with the local emergency team, I can also
provide advice on EMS. I founded the local Rescue Squad in 1978 and am
still President of the corporation. I was also the local DES
Coordinator from 1977-1993.

Secretary, Collins Collectors Association
The Collins Collectors Association would like to invite those of you
who have an interest in Collins Radio to subscribe to the now fully
automated Collins Reflector. This service is sponsored by the CCA and
is provided at no charge to Collins enthusiasts.
There is an FAQ which will hopefully be sent to each new subscriber
when they "sign on." If you would like one and don't get it, drop me
an E-mail at my address above.
There may be a few initial bumps and glitches at first but we hope
those of you who choose to participate will enjoy it.
As of 1/6/97, the Collins Reflector will be fully automated and I will
discontinue forwarding the mail manually as in the past.
The new automated list processor will be a real upgrade. It will
enable you to get the material in nearly real time and does not
require me to forward each message manually. You will get the material
much quicker than before. The Collins Listserver behaves much like the
Boatanchors list. Simply, you subscribe to the list, send it messages
which it then "reflects" back out to all those who subscribe. This is
done once every ten minutes.
You must resubscribe to the new listserver in order to continue to
participate. The automated list server follows the same guidelines
contained in the CCA FAQ. Please continue to follow those guidelines
for posting and contributing.
Here is how to subscribe:
Send an E-mail message to:
list...@listserv.tempe.gov
Leave the Subject header of the message blank and in the body, simply
type:
subscribe collins
The listprocessor will output an E-mail message back to you with easy
to follow instructions asking for your confirmation. At that time, you
will be asked to send a second E-mail message to the listserver.
Follow those instructions exactly and send the second, confirmation,
message to the listserver.
If all is successful, you will be signed up to the list and a complete
set of instructions will be sent back to you in the form of an E-mail
by the automated list server.
Finally, a very big thanks to Dave Kelly, AI7R and the City of Tempe,
AZ who have graciously provided and set up the server. Dave and the
Collins Collectors Association sponsor the Collins Reflector as a no
charge benefit for Collins afficionados everywhere. Enjoy!

I have been a ham since 15. I have been an Extra class operator since
age 17, and a VE since age 18. [_Editor's note:_Possibly the youngest
Contact VE ever.]
I am an avid HF QRP (low power) and mobile operator. I have spent
literally hundreds of hours installing my mobile station (IC-706 and
Screwdriver antenna, plus more grounding straps than I can remember)
in my 1995 Neon.
Most of the time I operate QRP CW mobile.
Why? It challenges my operating skills as much as possible, plus QRP
is safer (RF-wise) than is 100 or 1500 watts. With the effects of RF
exposure still unknown, I don't feel like exposing myself to
high-power RF fields any more than necessary, and if 3 watts will do
the job, so be it, I'll emit it.
In addition, people are generally amazed when you mention that not
only are you running just 3 measly watts output power, and on top of
that you're doing it from your car as it's zipping down the Interstate
at 65 mph. They just can't believe it's possible that less power than
a nightlight is bouncing off the ionosphere and ground three times,
and is still able to be detected 10,000 miles away.
I'm here to tell them it is.
I enjoy building kits, and consider myself to be a good builder.
I am a fair contest operator, and enjoy 35 WPM CW ragchews as well as
hunting for DX.
I am active with both the Laurel (Maryland) and University of Maryland
Amateur Radio Clubs, and operate with both during public service
events. I have been the chief HF operator at University of Maryland
HF-related events (Field Day and Sweepstakes) for the past three
years.
As a Volunteer Examiner, I have conducted roughly 150 test sessions,
testing at minimum a thousand applicants.
I have recently given Novice/Technician license instruction, as well
as taught a 5 WPM code class. I have been told that I have a knack for
describing complex subjects in ways that make them far easier for
laypeople to understand.

My favorite aspect of amateur radio is contesting. It drives my
station improvements and operating proficiency. I have played around
with antennas and made various station modifications to improve my
contact efficiency. Along the way I have solved some RFI problems,
built many of my station accessories, installed and built some HF
antennas, put up a small (40') tower, etc.
I volunteer as a RACES operator in no particular capacity. I help with
a few VE test sessions a year mostly representing the ARRL VEC with
the Burlington ARC team.
I work as a SRAM design/product engineer at IBM Microelectronics in
Essex Junction, Vermont. I have been interested in electronics and
computers since a young age, but only got my amateur radio license in
1993 as a Technician at the age of 31. I got to know the code and
upgraded to Extra in February of 1994.

also a ham radio section for "manufacturers and dealers" on America
On-Line in which we list Amateur Television Quarterly, as expert and
manufacturer. That is where most of the Frequently-Asked Questions
(FAQ's) come from.
Most FAQ's are answered in one of two books we published. ATV Secrets
for Aspiring ATV'ers is a non technical book, and Volume II is a
300-page technical manual with theory and projects for all equipment
necessary to operate an ATV station. Prices in US funds are $9.95 and
$24.95 plus postage ($3.10). Most of your inquires can be answered by
either of these two books.
I am also compiling a set of W6ORG Notes, a regular column in ATVQ,
which answers many of the technical FAQ's on various equipment and
operations. This will be available for $9.95 also.
I can Elmer on most subjects, but not spread spectrum or packet.

I have nearly 30 years experience in electronic/computer service work.
I enjoy designing, building, and operating vacuum tube and solid state
equipment. I restore, test, repair, and operate antique radio
equipment. The maximum power I use for daily operations is always
below 100w, and most of the time, I operate at QRP (5w) or less! (More
with less.) I have a real enthusiasm for building just about anything
from nothing, as part of the homebrew aspect of the hobby. When not
working DX, enjoying a good contest, or have a great time on Field
Day, I watch over my 6m repeater, or work VHF packet. I am glad to be
of help to those in need! I fully support the Elmer program as a means
to bring new people into Amateur Radio. I teach Novice and Tech
classes for aspiring Amateurs. I am also a merit badge instructor for
the scouting program, and the advisor for the Bloomsburg University
Amateur Radio Club.

I can help people with HF stuff, cheap antennas, and am willing to
help troubleshoot problems with rigs.
I believe that one of the pillars of ham radio - construction/
understanding at the burn-your-hand-with-a-soldering-iron level - is
drifting out of ham radio. With Japanese radios which cost so much,
fewer and fewer hams are willing to risk their warranty to service
their own equipment. I would like to see a turn-around here...

Recently I undertook some academic research into packet radio using
KA9Q's Multiple-Access/Collision Avoidance (MACA) link-layer protocol.
I attempted a literature survey as well as some software simulations
of the protocol (with varying degrees of success). I would welcome any
opportunities to improve on my work, find out about any actual MACA
implementations, share information, and build on my bibliography
(available on request). More information about MACA may be obtained

Manager, Courage HANDI-HAM System
I have information pertaining to Amateur Radio and physical
disabilities or sensory impairments, such as blindness.
Visit us on the World-Wide Web:
http://www.mtn.org/handiham/
HELP WANTED: READERS NEEDED BY HANDI-HAMS
The Courage HANDI-HAM Center needs volunteer readers to record ham
radio books and publications on audio tape. Volunteer readers provide
a valuable service to persons with severe physical disabilities and
sensory impairments who cannot use regular printed books.
Volunteers should hold an Amateur Radio license and be familiar with
hobby terms and expressions. A clear speaking voice and the ability to
read the written text of Amateur Radio books and describe the diagrams
and pictures are essential.
HANDI-HAMS will provide a tech sheet and a sample tape to new
volunteers, as well as a copy of the book to be read and cassette
master tapes. Readers will need a good-quality cassette tape recorder
and a quiet place to record. Some of the books we would ask readers to
tape would be ARRL license manuals, special interest Amateur Radio
books, and instruction manuals for radios.
This volunteer work can be done in one's own home, at one's own pace,
as long as there is a quiet place to read. It is a wonderful way to
share Amateur Radio with others!

http://www.biochem.mcw.edu/Postdocs/Simon/radio/exam.html
This WWW site allows users to practice for the US Amateur Radio
examinations on-line. The written examinations for all five classes,
novice through extra, can be generated complete with figures, filled
in on-line, and then graded. The results are presented
question-by-question, and also graphically by subelement, so that
users can identify areas which require further study.
More advanced options include saving the results of each examination a
user takes on-line. These results can be used to monitor progress and
also as a basis for generating exams tailored to a user's needs,
ensuring that all questions are practiced.
Exams can also be generated and E-mailed to users without WWW access:
Send E-mail to ex...@eeyore.biochem.mcw.edu with a line in the body of
the message like:
generate novice
This will result in a novice exam being generated and E-mailed back to
you with the answers included at the end of the E-mail. These exams
lack the figures, so reference to a printed copy is advised! Simply
replace "novice" with any of the other exam names (technician,
general, advanced or extra) to get the other exams. To request
multiple exams in one E-mail, write multiple "generate" lines.
Other exam resources such as the question pools, copies of the exam
figures, and FCC Part 97 are also available. A comprehensive help page
exists to guide users through the facilities of the site. All
questions and queries are welcome!

===============================================
This message does not constitute any official or unofficial statement or
policy of American Turnkey or any other organization, corporation or
institution.
I just upgraded to Advanced, and am now working on Extra. Was first
licensed about ten months ago.
What I've learned:
1. How to operate HF from your apartment without being evicted
2. How to pass tests, both written and code
3. How to make a virtue out of the necessity of your limited
equipment, and enjoy the process while doing it
I operate CW HF exclusively. The only time I get to operate is when
the baby is asleep, so the XYL demands silent running. Besides, with
my wimpy wire, there is little point in trying to run voice.

I am currently a mature student at King's College, University of
Aberdeen, studying for the B.Sc. (Hons.) Computing Science. I enter
the third year of this course on 25th September 1997.
I run a telephone BBS in the Fidonet network. This is currently
offline due to problems with the telephone line, but is expected to be
back up in late September of 1997.
I also have my own IBM compatible computer, which has a P166
processor, 32M of RAM and a total of 4.6G of hard drive space, spread
between three EIDE hard drives. This computer normally runs under the
Linux operating system, and I am gradually moving the above Fidonet
BBS system across from MSDOS to Linux. Because of the lack of suitable
software under Linux, I am writing one myself, having had 15 years
experience as a professional programmer.
I am a regular participant in AuroraMUSH, a MultiUser system, and have
authored several patches to the suftware controlling it. It may be
visited at:
telnet://amush.ml.org:4190/
I have been involved with Packet radio for over a decade now. Indeed,
it was packet radio that got me interested in Amateur Radio in the
first place.
I started up a mailing list connected with the Amateur Satellite
world, currently using manual subscriptions. The list is:
Space.R...@cus.umist.ac.uk
and is for the discussion of the possibility of placing an amateur
band repeater or transponder in orbit around a planet other than
Earth, or on the surface of one of the other planets.
I will add that, although I can claim to be something of an expert on
both Linux and Packet Radio, I am definitely NOT an expert on the two
together.

AMSAT-NA (The Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation in North America)
operates the Internet host AMSAT.ORG to provide for efficient
communications between people interested in the amateur satellite
program. At this time two services are provided: a message remailing
service and a mailing list service.
In addition, the AMSAT World-Wide Web home page provides interactive
access to a variety of information related to the amateur radio
satellite program. Use your Web browser program (e.g., Mosaic) to
access the URL:
http://www.amsat.org/
Anonymous FTP is available from:
ftp://ftp.amsat.org/amsat/
This archive contains much of the same information as the WWW server.
In addition, various files and programs are available for anonymous
FTP. This is a relatively new archive, so the older FTP site:
ftp://ftp.ucsd.edu/hamradio/
still has lots of files not available there.
The message remailing service permits users to send each other mail on
the Internet without keeping track of each other's Internet address.
The remailing service allows each user to receive mail sent to the
address call...@amsat.org, where callsign is that user's amateur
radio callsign, or other unique identifier. Mail sent to that address
will be routed first to the AMSAT.ORG host at UCSD in San Diego, then
remailed from AMSAT.ORG to the network address specified by the user.
In most cases, this process delays the message by only a very few
minutes. The mailing list service groups subscribers into mailing
lists to receive certain types of messages. There are public mailing
lists available to anyone, and private mailing lists available only to
certain people (for example, AMSAT Board of Directors members or
PACSAT command stations). Currently the following public mailing lists
exist:
ANS - AMSAT News Service
This mailing list carries official news releases from the AMSAT News
Service. These messages are posted in a form suitable for direct
posting to a packet radio BBS system. Each message contains a Bulletin
Identifier (BID), which permits the message to be introduced into the
packet network at many places without resulting in duplicate bulletins
at any BBS. The primary purpose of this mailing list is to distribute
ANS bulletins for redistribution (via the packet net or on AMSAT voice
nets), but individuals may also subscribe for their own use. If your
local packet BBS doesn't seem to get the ANS bulletins reliably, you
are encouraged to post the ANS bulletins yourself.
Only authorized AMSAT News Service personnel should send messages to
the ANS mailing list.
AMSAT-BB - AMSAT bulletin board
This mailing list carries general AMSAT information. This information
may NOT be suitable in content for transmission via amateur radio, so
automatic reposting of AMSAT-BB messages to packet radio BBS's is
discouraged. The purpose of this mailing list is to provide a forum
for general discussion of any satellite-related topic.
Anyone may send messages to the AMSAT-BB mailing list. Simply address
your message to amsa...@amsat.org, and it will be automatically
forwarded to all subscribers to the AMSAT-BB mailing list.
Editors of publications should ask permission of the sender before
publishing anything seen in AMSAT-BB elsewhere, unless the posting was
obviously a public press release. However, posters should realize that
anything posted to AMSAT-BB is essentially public.
KEPS - Keplerian Elements mailing list
This mailing list carries official postings of Keplerian element sets
for satellites of interest to radio amateurs. Like the ANS bulletins,
these messages are posted in a form suitable for direct posting to a
packet radio BBS.
Only authorized AMSAT News Service personnel should send messages to
the KEPS mailing list.
NASAINFO - NASA related information mailing list
This mailing list contains information about current and planned NASA
space missions. Be forewarned: at times this mailing list delivers
many large messages.
SAREX - Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment mailing list
This mailing list contains information and press releases pertaining
to SAREX missions.
To obtain any of these services, just send a message to the address
list...@amsat.org
This address may be reached from CompuServe MAIL as:
>INTERNET:list...@amsat.org
For the moment, the maintenance of the AMSAT.ORG mailing lists and
remailing aliases is done manually. Later, this service will probably
be automated and you will have to follow a strict message format. For
now, you may send requests in free format. They will usually be
processed within a few days. In general, you will not receive an
explicit reply to your request. Be sure you specify:
1. Which mailing list(s) you want to receive
2. Your callsign, if any
3. The Internet address to be used, if different from the one in your
From: header.
You should not send messages about your subscriptions to any of the
mailing lists. Send them to list...@amsat.org instead. This includes
questions, requests for changes, requests for information about
mailing services, and complaints.
The list of amateurs who may be reached via the message remailing
service may be obtained by requesting the "address book". Note that
the address book as distributed contains only the callsigns of the
available addressees, not their actual Internet addresses. The address
book is updated occasionally, and does not necessarily contain the
very latest information.
You may request to be added to the list, to be deleted from the list,
or to have your Internet address changed on the list. Please include
your callsign if you have one. If you don't have a callsign, that's
OK, but please say so. If you have more than one Internet address you
want to have available on the AMSAT.ORG remailer, you may so specify.
For instance, if you have a regular Internet address and a CompuServe
account, you may appear in the address book as both w1xyz and
w1xyz-cis. Mail sent to w1xyz would go to your Internet address, and
mail sent to w1xyz-cis would go to CompuServe. MCImail accounts have
the form w1xyz-mci, and so on.
You may also subscribe or unsubscribe to any of the public mailing
lists described above. Send a message to list...@amsat.org,
specifying clearly which mailing list(s) you want to add or drop, and
giving your callsign if you have one. When you subscribe to a mailing
list, you will automatically be added to the remailing service as
well, because the mailing lists are maintained by callsign. If you
have more than one address listed in the remailing service, please
indicate which one(s) you want the mailing list messages sent to.
Additional mailing lists, public or private, can be set up as needed.
Send mail to list...@amsat.org for details.
Questions about any service offered by AMSAT.ORG may be directed to
list...@amsat.org as well.
Please note that the AMSAT business office is separate from mailing
list maintenance. You may address membership requests to
mar...@amsat.org, or send them by mail, phone, or fax to AMSAT

+
+ The Dayton E-mail Elmers service allows new or prospective hams in
+ Dayton and Southwestern Ohio, or even experienced amateurs who are
+ venturing into a new aspect of the hobby, to send an E-mail request
+ for assistance. Volunteer on-line Elmers then can provide a response
+ in the "Elmer" tradition of mentoring new or less-experienced hams.
+
+ Today, many hams prepare for their license exams through classroom
+ programs, and the individual Elmer's touch isn't as common as it once
+ was. The E-mail Elmer service is an attempt to restore this long
+ tradition. The MVFMA hopes that the initial E-mail exchange will be
+ the start of an ongoing Elmer relationship in the best tradition of
+ Amateur Radio."
+
+ Hams may use the E-mail Elmer service simply by sending an E-mail
+ message to:
+
+ el...@febo.com
+
+ and posing the ham radio question they'd like to have answered. Users
+ will get a machine-generated confirmation, and within a few days, they
+ will get a response from one or more of the volunteer Elmers.
+
+ For more information, or to volunteer as an E-mail Elmer, contact me
+ at my phone number or E-mail address above.
