Being able to send messages by ham radio is useful in disasters as well

Though I haven't heard much of the AX.25 Packet BBS systems in
decades... It seems APRS is mostly what remains of packet.
AX.25 Packet Radio BBS's are still alive and well, though the number of
active nodes has decreased significantly over the past 20 years. There
are 3 of them within a 50 mile radius of me, but I haven't tried passing
a message from coast to coast in several years. I suspect that some
nodes are tunneling via the Internet, which sort of defeats the purpose.
