Check out the US 99 menu above for links to information about US Highway 99, after which the US 99 BBS is named.
Be sure to click on the Amateur Radio menu item above for packet BBSes, packet software, packet organizations, as well as packet how-to's. Also included is links to local and some not-so-local Amateur Radio Clubs.
But these are good folks. They've never needed much guidance. :-)
one thing someone might do: is list some of the alaska bbs's every
once in a while.

The only two closest to Alaska are Steven's Board in Whitehorse, and mine in Dawson Creek. AFAIK both Mail Only.
Hope this helps. Keep us posted.
I don't doubt you, but I have two questions. 1) Is your address in the current
nodelist and 2) Is your BBS reachable through POTS?
1:218/903 isn't even in the seenbys...
You forget that I "own" the luddites.org domain. I don't do
facetweets and don't like people in my personal space. ;-)
Is this him?

Looks like him. Saw no way to email him...maybe I'll try the old fashioned way and call via POTS.
Mayhaps he learned from this, lets hope. And hope he/she is not vindictive. Better yet watch your speed. (Yeah right from someone
who like to speed as well! My prefered cruising speed is about 115-120kmh.)
Found an old BBS list type thing on the World Wide Wait (http://bbslist.textfiles.com/907/). Lori was Lori Martin and it
says we shutdown in 1997.
It looked like there was a place to contact him. I assume MySpace would send on your note.
I'm not sure if it's in the nodelist. But I do get mail from my hub
1:10/1 everyday.
And no pots. Haven't had pots for close to 10 years now.
There wouldn't be any use where I live. Wasilla is not that big.

I'd better be mail only but I thought yours still took human
callers. When did that stop?
day when I got it, after I raised a Charter argument that my right
to a speedy trial had been infringed.
WOW.
what a history.
too bad a history file couldnt be archived so us noobs of only 5 or
10 yrs could get a reference; ie background; overviews;
appreciation.
I think you'd have to get Bill to do the history file. My ALASKA_CHATdatabase
goes back to 1995 but it doesn't deal much with the history of the Net in Alaska.

any others?
No, you do not have a nodenumber in the nodelist. Go to http://www.filegate.net/zone1/
and fill out an application. You are getting mail from 1:10/1, not someone in your net, though that doesn't matter either. You are
showing as 1:140/30, and there is no such node number. Once you get nodelisted it will help people find your system easily :)
I have been MO for about 10 years now.
I moderated this echo from the time Queen Deidre left to late last year. Go Hannah is moderator now.

Janis, Sam is in Region 17. Why would he not go to Bob Seaborn and get a RIN listing?
Yes, I did mean 'up' <grin>. Don't ask me why my fingers traveled
all the way over to that 's' - I have no idea :)
It may be that an RC will want to keep an existing net going
however, since most people these days are ion nodes and phone costs
aren't a factor. Our nets might benefit from having more
volunteers, JMHO.

Janis, etal, I was the last NC for Net 3550 which was Alaska. I
sent the message to Dallas to pull the plug on us, don't remember
when that was exactly, around 1995-1996. Steven took over Alaska
Chat from the two women who ran it. My wife and our friend "Queen
Deidre". They inherited it from a woman who was married to an Air
Force guy at Eielson AFB outside of Fairbanks, Lori/Laurie Somethingorother. She had gotten it listed prior to me becoming
NC.
WOW.
what a history.

They did not know that they ticketed an officer of the court did
they, especially one that knows the law inside out.
Lemme see if Deidre or Gene (the NEC when I was NC) can recall.
Dallas may remember more. Gordon Rasnick, the original NEC who ran
The Pipeline, was brutally murdered (this is not a joke) after I
took over. Todd Savoie, the original NC who taught me what little
I knew about the Opus BBS/Binkley, has disappeared as far as I
know.
certainly remember your wife. As for Lori, Deidre would know who she was although the name Nielsen (sp?) sticks in my mind.
Is this him?

I don't think there is a BBS in Alaska these days and I know there is no Alaska
BBS tied into Fidonet.
He could :) Normally, that is us to the RC as to what type node
number is given though.
The constable knew I was a lawyer but he didn't set the trial date.

You mean my board doesn't exist? I'm just a figment of my
imagination?

I assume that you meant "up to the RC". However, there is no nert around here to join which is why both Gord Hannah and I are RINs.

To each his own. :-) I remember one Alaskan who told me who wouldn't even do web-based email.
