Gentlemen. Please stop saying this. Is is at the
very least 'inaccurate' and leads people to become a
mode bigot (packet (AX.25) = bad?).
Packet is AX.25. It is a modulation mode and a
ditital communication protocol. One may engage a
simplex (non-digipeated) QSO using AX.25 for contest
credit (provided the event is not mode specific enough
to exclude it). Packet is not the issue.
Say what you mean: Packet Spotting Networks (PSN's if
you must abbreviate). But be sure to include all
types of spotting networks (including FM repeaters
that are used for such things).
