A few points to note (I was a licensed HAM for 20 years before letting my license expire)

Great, I appreciate you experience and input!

1. It's illegal to send encrypted communication over amateur frequencies. It's illegal to use non-voice modes on CB in most places. Keep that in mind when designing your protocol.

This was new to me and it definitely has to be taken into account. Thanks for bringing it into my attention!

2. As someone else already said, just use tcp over packet radio. Don't reinvent the wheel.

While you're an expert in HAM radio, I'm a systems and network architect with similar experience to yours (20 years). I know my stuff when it comes to protocols. Using UDP is not reinventing anything; it merely means providing a more cost efficient alternative to the overly heavy TCP.

3. Amateur radio operators and CB operators generally hate each other.

Maybe it's finally time to learn to love each other then. Wink

I sent the DEV a message about your skills we discussed in private. Everyone might be better served working together.

From what i see so far it's a great fit since we all have different skill sets that don't overlap much, so no one will step on another toes
Will drop u a email when I get a reply.
