Re: [44net] directly connected and tunnel subnets

Heikki Well no it is not necessary as we are using the space alocated to ham radio for ham radio use these will be APs and clients that are operating on ham radio frequencies. As for as use of the 44net I guess one could ask the same of you. If your project is not routable to the internet why not use 10/8? Answer on both counts because it is allocated for ham radio use. One "project" is not necessarily exclusive of the other on the 44 net just like SSB and FM are both used in 440mhz.
