Welcome to BATS and CATS and RATS. Here are some amateur radio-related
links that might interest you. The xATS systems focus on high-density digital
data, video and telephone communications via amateur radio using all of those
federally-allocated standard-carrier frequencies from DC to light!
There are many connectors to the xATS services. Since we are Amateur
Radio oriented, the users are mostly other amateur radio groups and clubs, and
assorted disaster services. Some of these impressive xATS users, and other
impressive users, are listed below. Also included are some Amateur Radio related
information services and some specialized non-Amateur Radio services which may
interest you.
