@norayr AX.25 is explicitly disallowed on unlicensed TX frequencies. So, you more or less need licensure to legally use AX.25 anywhere. As long as you're not causing interference, you can mostly get away with unlicensed testing without any issues. However, never ever ever connect to the Internet via Winlink etc on a pirate connection, or the neckfat sleuths will be talking about you for weeks.

i guess this is very much offtop here, and if/when i get a license and equipment, i will know it, but i know you need to tell in the radio cast your identification, but ax.25 is not your voice, how do you identify yourself?

The software you're using handles that.

How big is the intersection between Geminauts and Meshtastic users? β€” I wonder how many people here are also meshtastic users! After all, one could say that Geminispace is as "Off-Grid" to the Internet as Meshtastic is to ... WiFi? Just on a different layer of the OSI model!
