What types of data can be sent over packet radio. I just started
reading about HAMs and Packet radio and am anxious to learn more. I
have a few project ideas in mind and was wonder if they are fesiable.
Can video be sent over packet radio? I would use 2400bps.


Consider that 2400 bps is 240 bytes per second. A standard jpg photo
might be 48 kb (kilobytes). (For a nice round number.) So that
would take 200 seconds to transmit.

Assuming some overhead which is why I rounded 2400 bps to 240 bytes
per second. I'm not at all familiar with packet radio but am
familiar with phone line modems. There could be lots more overhead
with packet radio which I'm not aware of.

Thus while you could send video it could take several minutes per
frame.
