| | ARRLWeb: ARRL Supports FCC's Cognitive Radio Technology Proposals with Reservations |
| | While cognitive radio technology is "likely to enhance spectrum efficiency," the ARRL urged the FCC to avoid creating regulatory obstacles that would hamper "experimentation and flexibility in conducting amateur operations." It asked the FCC not to impose equipment authorization requirements on cognitive radio technology hardware or software used for amateur communications on Amateur Service frequencies. | | | The League also suggested that the FCC require cognitive radio technology software intended for other services be configured to block amateur allocations. | | | The ARRL called the Amateur Radio Service "fertile testing and development ground for SDR and CR technologies," now the subjects of experimentation and hardware and software development. |

| | Amateur Packet Radio's Maliase - Personal Reflections |
| | In comparasin to a genuine, global amateur radio digital network such as hams have built over the last decade or so, amateur TCP/IP with it's abject dependence upon the Internet for the bulk of it's communications is laughable. | | | One who at least likes the amateur radio digital network, and who wants to take steps to help it grow. | | | Knowing they look silly in comparasin to Amateur Packet Radio, their reaction is to constantly "run down" every aspect of packet padio and packet users, and take other, more concrete and immediate steps to wear it down and destroy it. |

| | Introduction to Packet Radio - Part 1 |
| | Packet seems to offer something different from other facets of Amateur Radio, yet it can be used for everything from a local QSO to a DX contact thousands of miles away, for electronic mail, message transmission, emergency communications, or just plain tinkering in the world of digital communications. | | | Packet Radio was one of the major developments to hit the world of Amateur Radio and thousands of hams soon caught the "packet bug". | | | In 1984, a great deal of packet experimentation was done, software for packet bulletin board systems was developed, and packet radio started becoming more and more popular all across the U.S. and Canada. |

Although licensing may be required in some cases, anyone can license a commercial frequency to digital data. |

| | In fact, amateur radio packet systems are a part of the Internet. | | | Packet Radio is a system of using Terminal Node Controllers (TNC's) and Amateur Radio transmitters and receivers to send information from place to place in a similar fashion as the telephone based Bulletin Board Systems (BBS's) or the Internet. | | | Packet radio concepts have been around since the mid-1960's, but was first used on the amateur bands in 1978 through research done in Montreal, Canada. |

| | Packet radio - definition of Packet radio in Encyclopedia |
| | Packet radio (PR) is a data transmission mode used in amateur radio, which is based on protocols similar to those on the internet, in particular AX.25, which is a subform of the X.25 protocol. | | | These packet stations also have a terminal (which may be emulated by a computer), to allow operator interaction with the TNC, but automatic packet radio stations do not need a terminal. | | | These limitations made sense in the context of the noisy, bandwidth-limited channels encountered in earlier packet radio implementations. |

| | Packet radio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Packet radio is a form of digital data transmission used in amateur radio to construct wireless computer networks. | | | The first amateur packet radio stations were constructed using surplus Bell 202 1,200 bit/s modems, and despite its low data rate, Bell 202 modulation has remained the standard for VHF operation in most areas. | | | The computer is responsible for managing network connections, formatting data as AX.25 packets, and controlling the radio channel. |
