NuPacket

Description:


Made for amateur radio operators, NuPacket is a basic Terminal Node Controller (TNC) interface application designed for performing ARES operations on Windows computers. It allows you to connect to up to thirty-two packet stations using six COM ports and conduct communication functions like sending and receiving text documents.
