It seems to me that one of the limitations of amateur packet radio is
that
it hasn't evolved much past the 1200 baud/BBS mindset of 20+ years ago.
Heck,
even trailingedge computer types like me have been running 56k dialup
modems for almost a decade!


Does your 56kb dialup modem work pretty good with your 2-meter rig? Wow! -
Why didn't we BBS operators think of this YEARS ago!

I thought the topic was how slow packet is compared to just about
everything else. Not hooking a phone modem to a rig.
