[H-GEN] radio modems - the story so far.

(Note reply-to: being general at humbug.org.au vs Michael Anthon <mca at tams.com.au>)

More info, I had a poke around the ACA [1] web site and found this...

Restrictions on Connection to a Public Telecommunications Network

A licensee must not, directly or indirectly, connect an amateur station to a
public telecommunications network if the station is:
(a) an amateur repeater station; or
(b) an amateur beacon station; or
(c) using automatic mode (including, for example, packet mode and
radioteletype mode); or
(d) using computer controlled mode (including, for example, packet mode and
radioteletype mode).

Extracted from http://www.aca.gov.au/publications/info/regs.htm  This is
pretty clear cut...

How this applies to unrestricted bands I do not know.  Perhaps someone who
enjoys reading legalese [2] could poke around a bit more and find out

Cheers
Michael
