Hmm, even here you may notice several people with quite networking experience wanted to get involved but when they asked for help because it is not that easy to understand how 44net works as there is tremendous lack of information, they got pretty rude replies, like, they should write documentation themselves.
It's like there is some kind of elitism. If you are not involved in development since mid 70's, and if you actually need to read documentation, then you are not in a game.
Yup, exactly.
I'd like to grant access to Amateur Radio frequencies if the source ip is within 44.0.0.0/8. I assume that only radio amateurs are "behind" net44 addresses.
You see, but that is completely useless, because you just firewalled the entire internet.
This is going to go nowhere. Go play with your netrom nodes and have fun pinging each other at 1200baud, and keep being hostile to wireless ISPs who just offered the use of tens of thousands of $$ worth of outdoor 100mbit gear for no charge.
Think about it.

The key here is access to "Amateur Radio Frequencies", e.g. getting on the air / RF. The firewall would only be when the destination is behind an amateur radio link. You haven't cut off say a 44.x.x.x webserver from the Internet, if that webserver is on a non-Amateur RF connection. But you would block connection to a mobile station that is only reachable via 23 cm amateur radio.
