If you're in Northern California, and are licensed to operate amateur radios, feel free to visit our Linux packet node/ax.25 system at KM6LYW-4.
If you have a packet radio setup at your shack, tune to 145.050Mhz
(or current frequency)
and simply run
axcall yourradioport KM6LYW-4 via KBERR
Where yourradioport is your packet radio device. This could be a KISS TNS
like direwolf, or an old school packet radio modem. All of this can be done on
a Raspberry Pi for example.
Alternatively, if you prefer "linpac" simply connect with
:connect KM6LYW-4 via KBERR
