Transmitting Files Over Radio Airwaves |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: It is possible to use a ham radio to transmit files over the airwaves much like modems send information through telephone wires. You need a text editor (such as WordPerfect), a telecommunications program, a computer terminal, a transceiver (radio transmitter/receiver) which replaces the normal modem phone line, and a TNC (Terminal Node Controller). The TNC transfers the data between the computer and the radio by converting it to the proper mode. The mode (protocol) is usually packet, but other modes such as rtty, ascii,...could also be used. TNC manufacturers include MFJ, AEA, and Kantronics. Data files should be saved in ASCII or sent in binary mode. Program files should be sent as is. Some telecommunications programs are: Procomm Plus, Procomm 2.4.x, Qmodem, Banyan, Telix, Crosstalk, and Bitcomm. |
