#44yearsof44net
Every amateur radio project starts with an idea. 44Net gives you a place to experiment, build, and share. What will you build next? Thanks for following along as we celebrated 44 years of 44Net! #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio

Operators use 44Net to move telemetry, status information, and network data between amateur radio systems across multiple locations. #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #networking #telemetry

44Net can support VoIP and SIP applications, such as conference servers. What voice applications have you experimented with? #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #digitalcommunications

Schools and clubs can use 44Net as a hands-on environment for teaching networking concepts used in amateur radio and digital communications. What kinds of networking concepts would you like to explore with 44Net? #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #networking #education
June 24, 2026 at 5:37 PM
Have an amateur radio license and want to learn more about TCP/IP? 44Net offers a hands-on way to learn networking, allowing operators to experiment with things like routing, running services, and building real-world setups, from home labs to club networks. #44net #44yearsof44net #networking

MQTT servers can be used with 44Net to transport telemetry from remote stations, including weather data, solar power systems, and station automation. What data would you monitor from your station? #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #mqtt #iot #telemetry

Early 44Net traffic often moved at 1200 bits per second over packet radio. Today, many links run at millions of bits per second using modern equipment, often built by the same volunteer community. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio
March 13, 2026 at 4:30 PM
44Net links together volunteer-built networks over the Internet and over the air, using mostly off-the-shelf gear and shared know-how, continuing a tradition that started with homemade packet radio stations decades ago. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio

44Net can bring network activity to life. Recently demonstrated at HAM RADIO, the interactive ARDC Globe uses 44Net to visualize activity across the network. What would you like to see visualized next? #44net #44yearsof44net #datavisualization #opensource #networking

44Net can be used across a wide range of setups, from home labs, repeaters, Raspberry PIs, cellular, and satellite, supporting experimentation wherever operators are. #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #digitalcommunications

44Net addresses aren’t tied to your ISP, giving operators a consistent network presence across setups and locations. Run services, access remote stations, or move between setups without changing your addressing. #44net #44yearsof44net #networking

44Net can support applications for remotely controlling amateur radio equipment, including HTs: git.ampr.org/adam/AIOC. What piece of radio gear would you like to control remotely? #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio
August 21, 2026 at 3:10 AM
On 44Net, operators can run their own services, ranging from web servers to custom applications, creating a space to build and experiment beyond typical home network limits. #44net #44yearsof44net #networking

In 2011, under the leadership of Brian Kantor WB6CYT SK, ARDC was founded as a nonprofit foundation to be the trustee of the #44Net address space. #ardc #amateurradio #science #technology #44yearsof44net

The backbone of 44Net is IP address space, but the heart is sharing notes, fixing links, and helping newcomers get on the air. That was true decades ago, and it’s still true today. #44net #44yearsof44net #packetradio #amateurradio
March 20, 2026 at 3:14 PM
Mesh networking projects, including AREDN (www.arednmesh.org) and other high-speed data networks, can use 44Net tunnels to interconnect sites and experiment with IP-based services across multiple networks. #44net #44yearsof44net #meshnetworking #aredn #networking

44Net can be used to support remote station control, allowing operators to connect to amateur radio equipment and services across different locations. What would you control remotely with 44Net? #44net #44yearsof44net #networking #amateurradio #remotestation #digitalcommunications

44Net wasn’t just built online: it was built in person. In the early days, regional coordinators helped operators modify radios and build TNC’s for packet operation. This hands-on approach is still part of the community today. #44net #44yearsof44net #amateurradio #packetradio

Today’s amateur radio community networks began with just a few people linking sites to see what was possible. A microwave link between hilltops, an AllStar node, a tunnel routing traffic between friends…it all starts with someone trying an idea. What could you try with 44Net? #44net #44yearsof44net
May 20, 2026 at 4:37 PM
44Net can support self-hosted applications, from photo repositories with shareable links to other services you build yourself. What would you self-host? #44net #44yearsof44net

44Net isn’t just for modern hardware. At Hamvention 2026, we used 44Net Connect to display grantee project summaries from a vintage VT-102. What classic hardware would you put back to work? youtube.com/shorts/Kv7Oc... #44net #44yearsof44net #retrocomputing
