Telnet To JNOS From Public IP Users Not Working
by Charles Hargrove 09 Dec '16

09 Dec '16

I am having trouble getting users to telnet from their homes to my JNOS box located at 44.68.41.1 on port 2300. Their seems to be an asynchronous connections as they try to transverse the UCSD portal. I see my responses going back to them, but they are just hanging on their side. I have in my autoexec.nos file "route add default tun1 44.0.0.1" as their is a tunnel interface between the JNOS and the linux box that it is running on. Does anyone have any ideas?

>Are hams allowed to use spread spectrum modes in USA? Yes. Speaking of rules... I once asked about data data rates and bandwidth rules for ham radio in other countries. I am interested in learning about spread spectrum rules, and encryption rules for the hobby in other areas for anyone who cares to share. Steve KB9MWR

Dean, Thanks for sharing. Range will be the big thing at least for me, so if you get around to testing that, I hope you'll share your results. Though I am really leaning toward the 400 MHz modules. If there continues to be hold up on the MMDVM boards, then I'll likely order some LoRa modules for my winter project instead.

LoRa
by Steve L 27 Nov '16

Since we really need some other data radio options in the hobby, I wanted to mention LoRa. It's a chirped spread spectrum technology used for low power WAN applications, with air transfer rates: 300bps-31.2Kbps. There are 433 MHz modules, as well as 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz. As a staring place, WA2KWR has some code here: https://github.com/fcolumbu/LoRa_Projects/wiki Steve, KB9MWR

Indeed it is interesting, I have looked at it as well when a local telecom company recently announced it has deployed a country-covering network. (by mounting LoRa equipment at all cell towers and locations) They use 900 MHz, which is not a ham band here. But 433 could be useful. It is unfortunate that the datarate is too low for many applications. It could be interesting for APRS-like mobile datacomm or other telemetry, which is also what the commercial network is for. Rob

Re: [44net] Wikipedia article on AMPRNet

Speaking of documentation... Every once and a while I get an email from someone, and it's not clear to them how the IP space is useful, "since everyone on the internet already has a publicly routeable address." Maybe that can be made clearer some where? Just a suggestion.

Well, that amprnets.txt file of course has existed and has been maintained on hamradio.ucsd.edu for many many years. I have 3 old copies and all of them mention that it may be assumed that any packets with 44.128 addresses are bogons, so this text has probably been there for at least a decade if not much more. Currently this file does not exist anymore at hamradio.ucsd.edu, I presume its function has been taken over by the "networks" menu item at portal.ampr.org. However, that listing does not mention 44.128.0.0/16 at all. When it is desired to change the definition of this subnet, it may be better to provide an explicit new definition, instead of trying to remove the old definition from internet without providing a new one. I think that is not going to work well, given the way information is stored, copied and archived on the web. Also note that this information on portal.ampr.org is only available to registered users, so it would be wise to put some information on a publicly available site as well (maybe a description of the subnetting of net 44 at the top level without all that country-specific info). That could be on the www.ampr.org site. Rob

There are some rather troublesome inaccuracies in the Wikipedia article on the AMPRNet. Does anyone on this list have edit privileges on this page so those could be corrected? - Brian

44.127/16
by Assi Friedman 01 Nov '16

Quick question: why is 44.127/16 listed as "No Country" on the portal? How are the subnet allocations different from allocations that belong under a specific country? Thanks, Assi
