CB NEWS: VK CB TELNET NODES ON THE AIR

Some interesting news about C-B -- Citizens Band radio -- down-under. Unlike
the United States where C-B operation is hap-hazard with no structure,
Australia has a CB Packet Radio System that

***rivals anything that ham radio has ever set up.

And now, it is being linked over the Internet to C-B operations
in other nations including many Europe. This is making it possible for
Australian C-B'ers to connect with numerous other C-B stations throughout
the world using radio and Telnet. Q-News Graham Kemp, VK4BB, has the nodes and
the frequencies:

Nodes and BBS's. These are AU4BNE Node 27.225 Usb Brisbane Q'ld, AUS011 BBS
