 The KF4OYS Node And PBBS
                     (Rome's Only Packet Node)


Well I have the only Packet node in Rome Georgia. The Node's callsign is KF4OYS-5. The PBBS's callsign is KF4OYS-1. They run on 145.510 Mhz at 1200 baud. You might not be able to connect to it directly if you are in a low lying area, south of Mt. Alto, north of Lavender Mtn, or in extreme east Rome. If you can't get in to it directly, you can connect to it by typing " c kf4oys-1 via jasper " This will link to me via the jasper node. If this dosen't work the node is not on. I turn it off when I am in bed or when I am away from the house. I have the latest Georgia ARES news in the PBBS. 
Here is the approximate location:
Latitude: 34.294000
Longitude: -85.23730
Grid Square: EM74JH
Some future plans for the node and pbbs are: Internet access, E-Mail capabilities, this means you will be able to send e-mail over the pbbs or vice versa and a 9600 baud link on 440. 
If you have any questions about any of this or want to know how to get on packet click here.
