Jay,
I'm afraid that ship has sailed. You CANNOT depend on the packet having a source address of 44.x.x.x to allow it to key up a transmitter; there are many origins for packets on the network, and quite a few that have 44.x.x.x source addresses were never originated or touched by a licensed amateur radio operator. Or, for that matter, by a human at all. - Brian

We see more and more of this "bluring" of the edges of the network thatmany of us depend upon to NOT allow non-Hams onto. Why use 44Net addresses for non-radio links or services????? --- Jay WB8TKL
