Subj : what's after "old and fixed"? To : August Abolins From : Ward Dossche Date : Sat Apr 06 2019 08:50 am AA>>> Fidonet of the old is literally grounded on pcs in a fixed location. AA>>> No doubt, the "point" idea is the same - a fixed location. Just telling you that this point operates on an Android tablet which moves with me worldwide, and those that know me know that I do get around. Not a fixed location by any definition in the book. Right now I'm on the Northsea on a sailyacht, enjoying my morning coffee and about to send this message from this point system via an Iridium capable phone acting as a hotspot linked to a satellite. Works great, someone else pays the Iridium bill. Very mobile ... And the point system can also run from my phone without tablet. Weren't you one of those harping about me rejecting change?
