    packet radio probably, but i hope you like BBSs because 9600bps is blazingly fast over this medium

      I also hope you don’t intend to communicate anything that requires security or privacy because, assuming you mean HAM bands in HF, then you can’t encrypt anything.

        that’s another big limitation

        there’s probably a way to use encryption over HF, but this would require some kind of commercial license

          I mean encrypting the data is the easy part, doing it legally is the hard part. Good luck getting a world wide multi-station license…
