[HamWAN PSDR] HamWAN Minecraft? .. and TV cartoons?

[Michael Elias]

Hello,
Thanks Bart! I hope this will get my daughter to show at least some
interest in what ham radio can do. She loves to play minecraft and if I can
get this working on our end maybe she will be a bit more inquisitive when
it comes to ham radio. (Especially after I tell her, time connected to
"HAMcraft" doesn't count against her "allotment".) I just hope that our
local version of HamWAN (MI6WAN https://w8cmn.net/mi6wan/) doesn't ban this
kind of thing. It is virtually identical to HamWAN but not "certified"
because they use different frequency standards. Anyway, thanks again. I'm
looking forward to giving this a try this weekend.
73,
Mike K8AVJ
