Wanted to talk about a little project I've been working on to get some pretty old hardware up as a old school packet radio BBS node. In the video, I have a Commodore SX-64, the first "portable" computer with a color monitor, as it was from 1983. Attached to it a a MFJ-1278 TNC2 working as an HF packet node connected to an FT-891. The TNC can also do RTTY as well as SSTV. In the video I connected to another users JNOS BBS node and left them a message.
