  • QWK message nets

    From kk4qbn@1:103/705 to All on Mon Dec 5 19:09:40 2016
    Whats up with all the QWK message networks as of lately, I search for them on Google, Sign in these no good for nothing applications to Join, just to be told a server has crashed afterward, then the ones that do show up tell me to go to this bbs or that bbs to sign in as a qwk node, just to see that BBS does not have that option anymore.

    I really would like to join a FEW more qwk networks, and these (USED) to be simple to join when people had up to date install packs, etc.

    I specifically want to join ones that are RC, Amateur Radio, related.

    Will be joining some gaming leages soon enough, but at least want some more QWK areas..

    Seems my reply to you got sent empty. Happens ovvasionally, don't know why. Anyway, you might be interested in VKRadio. I offer both FTN and QWK feeds. Infopack is here.

    your welcome, if you want to hatch it out when you update it, you can
    a) put it in a fidonet ftn called FILES2HQ
    b) send it direct to 1:340/400 (I allow all ftn connect)

    OK, neither are practical at this point in time, but will consider it after some upgrades and/or network joins (the BBS I can hatch on isn't on Fidonet).

    Ok thanks Rob, I will be hitting you up soon,I've been working with Kris for GatorNet and RadioWeather Net, I'm going to wait until I get my FTN back up and running to add any more networks, I will keep you on the front of the list.

    Take Care!
