SPECIAL MESSAGE  TO ALL CLUB MEMBERS
POSTED 17 JUNE 2010 2359z

Hello Everyone, Due to Technical Problems at N4JOA BBS.
You will have to connect to me by this example
Connect to one  of the K4PKT-8  ports. Either a  1200 baud port  or a 9600 baud
port. And then at the command prompt enter C 4:N4JOA
Make sure it is typed as above with the 4 and Colin.
I am having radio and antenna problems  on the VHF 145.030 Mhz K4PKT-8 port.So
until further notice the C 4:N4JOA connect  will need to be used at the  switch
for normal users. This does not affect how BBS's connect to me for forwarding.
That will not change. If you have  any problems with the new way of  connecting
  to my bbs let me know. Either via e-mail yate4899@gmail.com or via...
SP N4JOA @ N4JOA from another packet BBS.
...73's...Joel (SYSOP) N4JOA@N4JOA
