As a sysop, understanding how both personal messages and bulletins is crucial
to the smooth flow of data. While many are gathering up internet links to any
and all parts of the world just to fill up a table, the important thing to
think about is what happens when your internet link goes out. The old-timers
only had to think about an RF path in various directions from their QTH. We
should still maintain RF paths to the next county or state and not just rely
on an internet link. Even when you work that out, do you know where your bbs
partners are able to link to and move that nessage along? Maybe you should
ask them.
Currently my station has links to some main bbs players in various areas that
are reachable via the internet, but I am still looking at local and regional
systems that can be reached via RF. We should be sharing our forwarding paths
with other bbs sysops and strengthen the ability to get the message through.
Here is my current list of where I have either a single hop to a forwarding
partner or the next single hop from them to their forwarding partner.
USA states: CA, CO, CT, FL, ID, IL, IN, MD, MN, NJ, NV, NY, OH, PA, SC, TX,
UT, VA, WA & WI.
I also have direct links to Canada and to the rest of the world via GB7CIP
and a few others. Let us know where your next hop partners are. Try to get
those partners around your region via RF backbones on other than 2 meters.
