After some packet bulletins asking "is Packet all worth it" & "Dead" etc, some
time ago I thought I would share with you some of the feedback I have had over
the technical buls..

There are 339 separate respondents here, many with useful & detailed feedback
on particular buls, as well as a very large CONGRATS file that has general good
comments on the Technical buls series from 100s of readers.
So packet Radio certainly is not dead. It is interesting the less technical the
topic is the more feedback is generated! e.g. 13A Mains plugs, ASCII, & ADVERTS
(I expect this is the lowest common denominator effect.)
It just shows you if you put some effort into your buls, you will get rewarded
with feedback, but no effort into daft buls, no readers, no feedback!
Why don't U send an interesting bul?
