Hello to All,
I have setup a 24/7 PSKMail server in Sydney Australia (VK2ETA).
Since I have just updated the wiki space, it was time I introduced
myself to the group.
The name here is John and I have been testing/using PSKMail here in
Australia for couple of months now with great success.
My main usage is when I go 4WDriving as I like the great outdoors
this country has to offer. Due to it's relative sparse population
outside the big cities, there are significant parts of Australia
where we do not have mobile phone coverage. In fact in my last 10
trips I can safety say that more than half the time I would camp
outside a mobile phone coverage area.
Having looked at different systems on the web, and dismissed the
purchase of a PACTOR modem or a satellite phone for that matter, I
find PSKMail does everything I need: mail (and thereby SMS using a
third party provider), APRS, and text web (mainly for weather forecasts).
So congratulations and a big thanks to the authors and thanks to the
supporters for such a great, reliable solution with such a small HF footprint.
I have just upgraded to V0.5 and I intend to test the PSK250 mode
this weekend too. Has anyone tested that mode with PSKMail already
and what are your comments so far?
73s, John (VK2ETA)
