WB3FQY Packet BBS

The packet system runs on a 486/90mhz IBM clone under MSDOS 6.0 . The system is running Flexnet Digi software and FBB for the BBS.  Four Paccom Tiny 2 TNCs are linked to the software using an STB 4-COM buffered UART board sharing a single IRQ.  The signals originate from the K3IR repeater site in Rapho Township, Pennsylvania, at 622' ASL.  The repeater is in grid square FN10SM (76° 27' 17"  Latitude, 40°10'02" Longitude).and is approximately 10 miles west of Lancaster, PA.  The computer is backed up by a UPS and the entire system is backed up by a 30KW Diesel emergency generator. In the event of a power failure during emergencies this system will remain on line.
