I don't consider it a bummer Michael. I covered the encryption issue and
would close off routing for RF routing to only AMPRnet sources and
destinations. The encryption of email would be something I have not yet
accounted for?

With all that said, is there anyone out there performing intermediate
routing... what I mean is anyone running a tunneled gateway and
performing routing for other subnets over RF.
I presume you mean routing other subnets over amateur radio frequencies.
We used to do that. But there are two main problems with it here in the
US.
1) Encryption. More than half of websites are now encrypted and the
percentage is growing every day. E-mail encryption is also on the rise.
And encryption is not allowed over US amateur frequencies. So amateur
frequencies are fast becoming impractical/irrelevant for real-world,
mainstream network traffic. Not trying to be a bummer. But the FCC regulations
really squash
creativity and innovation.
