Yes, as a matter of fact, because the correct name for IRLP is Internet
Radio Linking Project. See www.irlp.net Note that is a USA website
describing IRLP, not an Aussie site...

A quote from the irlp.net website:

"The aim of this project is to reliably and inexpensively link amateur radio
systems without the use of RF links, leased lines, or satellites."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Without the use of RF links".

The full name for "RF" is "Radio Frequency".

So that rules out radio, then.

Only if there's no radio link anywhere. Otherwise, by your own
logic, any amateur using a microphone connected to a radio (ie
a non-RF link) isn't really engaged in Amateur Radio. An absurd
argument to prop up absurd logic.

Next question?

So, next question?
