Where does the word HAM come from?
The Amateur Radio X25 network, is a network of stations who run the protocol AX25 , which is a derivation of the X25 packet protocol. The network has a number of facilities the main one being the BBS service. The network not only covers the whole of the world but also extends out into space where the ISS, the old MIR space station and the Shuttle are active. In addition the the amateur community has its own satellites as well. The construction and operation of the satellites is carried out under the AMSAT (AMateur SATellites) banner with groups in all countries contributing to the effort.
Amateur Radio not only
covers phone transmission but also Television transmissions.
There are two types of ATV, FAST SCAN (normal television) and SLOW SCAN the
latter are a type of Fax transmission but with colour!
To assist in sending Fast Scan pictures there are a number of TV repeater stations which have been constructed to enable the signals to be relayed further afield than is normally possible from one's home location. The bands used for these transmissions are normally in the microwave region.
To cover the area along the South Coast of the UK, a group of us have put up a set of repeaters in Brighton, GB3VR / GB3RV / GB3VV are its callsign, which servers amateurs from between Brighton and Southampton.
In the UK the British Amateur Television Club (BATC) co-ordinates the activities.
