[OT]: PZT bbs software?

[OT]: PZT bbs software?

[Miroslav Skoric]

Hi all,

At the moment I work on a book chapter related to software that can
simulate real things. To reference works of others, I am interested in
written reports (web pages, online newspaper articles, e-book chapters,
e-books, or else) related to the experience with using a ham radio
software that can simulate a hardware node talking to another node, or
something similar. In that way, the sources I reference to will become
more visible after my book is published, so do not hesitate to suggest
me reading anything that is available - including your own reports :-))

Also, I need information where to get an updated version of Paula 
G8PZT's PZTBBS (Xserv) software for DOS machines. Seems that she does 
not respond to emails anymore. I recently made a telnet to her GB7PZT 
bbs and noticed it runs XServ AX25/IP/PSTN Mail/File/Web Server/Gateway 
v410h (13/8/06). But I did not find a way to get a copy of that version 
to install it here.

Finally, here you can see my test equipment:
             _____________                ____________________
VHF        |MS DOS 5 comp|              |MS Windows 2000 comp|
TRX--TNC2--|BPQ4.08a, PZT| --- LAN ---  | BPQ32 4.10n, FBB   |-- I'net
ant         -------------                --------------------
             YT7M-1 (BPQ)                   YT7MPB-3 (BPQ32)
             YT7M (PZTBBS)                  YT7MPB-4 (FBB)

My plan is to replace Windows setup on the right with Linux - or to have 
an alternative testbed for Windows-based computer. At the moment I have 
here Ubuntu 9.10 as a dual-boot with Windows, and wonder what 
suggestions do you have about the opportunities for Ubuntu. Earlier I 
played with Mandrake 9.1 and LinFBB but did not try it on Ubuntu.

Best regards,

Miroslav 'Misko' Skoric, YT7MPB
