I've been mulling over the concept of how to use BBS over HAM for the last 24
hours, sleepless nights much. There's a lot of people who have been using the
16 bit windows binaries from back in the day, which I think don't quite cut it
with modern use. But then it hit me...

Instead of using Telnet or any other TCP layer link, what if you just sent your
terminal keystrokes directly to the server over an FSK type connection. What if
you could just fire up FLDIGI and access BBS text raw from that output?

I was racking my brain on all kinds of ways to hook up com ports and other
stuff. None of that is necessary if you're just using a digital key program
like this. Food for thought?
