@dansup > iMessage functions exclusively on Apple platforms

Thanks but no thanks.

The iMessage protocol is based on the Apple Push Notification service (APNs)—a proprietary, binary protocol.

No, really.

Apple’s directory of iMessage public keys, Apple Push Notification service (APNs) addresses, and phone numbers and email addresses that are used to look up the keys and device addresses

Please don’t.

@dpwiz @dansup i don’t think sup meant they would reimplement apples iMessage and limitations… I think they meant they would make a great fedi based messaging experience, or did i get that wrong?

@ngons @dansup Of course. But the message reads really weird this way.

I’d have to jump through the mental gymnastics hoops to get to the core message of “bringing the warm fuzzy feeling I get as an apple user to Fediverse DMs”.

Apple >> Android >> De google Android >> CB Radio+LORA+express LRS+Laptop
Then there's all the HF modes. FT8 is very slow but like other frequency shift keying modes is capable of transmission under very unfavorable conditions. For practical use PSK31 and such come in.
Its a deep dive into digital/ham/packet for sure

problem is 99% of digital modes 'require' KYC/callsign


Have you seen JS8call
JS8call is derived from FT8, similar performance/limitations.
Not specifically but I've used other software that does this type of modulation.
I Did hear about someone working on LORA text messaging via UHF also, dunno how well that could be used in SHTF/grid down
That uses LORA

I want a method I can use on Laptop/PC with pairing with an UHF radio
Oh, you want what is known as a TNC cable. You can buy them for the popular brands or there are diagrams out there to make them. Designed to be used with any of the soundcard softmodem stuff that is out there.
I was looking the gizmos called Digirig and a fancy multiple connector gadget that does various standards including chirp and aprs


APRS looked good, but it lacked anonymity

All i wanted to find was a simple program to text message
via audio couping
no id
no encyption

Just send a simple message

Yet most of these digital programs are overly complex and loads of settings

Its definally not sheeple ease of use
