As Internet became easily available for low price, such communities eroded. Peple simply did not find it interesting to pay more for equipment to join wireless community with limited Internet services that to simply pay for commercial Internet access. And wireless communities do not have such limitations in usage as HAM radio does. I suppose it is better to target those that need such service, instead. My idea is to provide communication for remote DX and contest locations that are usually in rural places with bad or no Internet communication infrastructure at all. I do not strive to provide ISP quality services. If they can check propagation info, DX cluster, exchange email, have communication with other team members (in multi op contests teams for example) or use other similar services, it will do.
