National Packet Update - April 2024
Introduction
Progress around the Regions
Next Steps
This is a non-exhaustive list of some of the things we're hoping to achieve in the near future.
- Create a proposal for a node that could be deployed at a remote site. Ideally something repeatable, that wouldn't look out of place at a commercial site.
- Evaluate the various software packages available to create a stable, light weight, low maintenance NET/ROM enabled node for a remote site.
- Create an image or installation script to simplify creating a packet node.
- Continue to add new nodes and links to the network.
- Get some packets routing longer distance, between cities/towns/regions
- Experiment and have fun!
How to get involved
- Join the OARC Discord server ( https://www.oarc.uk/join ) and checkout the #national-packet-project channel
- Join the UK Packet Radio mailing list https://groups.io/g/ukpacketradio/
- See https://packet.oarc.uk for further information, tutorials etc. [As with this project, this page is a work in progress!]
- Build a node and get it on the air, or see if you can hit any of the existing nodes
- Look out for future updates to see how things are progressing
