Packet Radio

Packet radio is a communication method that transmits digital data over radio waves, similar to how internet data is sent but without wires. It breaks information into small packets, each with address and control info, allowing multiple users to share the same radio channel efficiently. Devices like mobile radios or computers equipped with radios can send and receive these packets, enabling remote communication, data sharing, and networking in areas without wired infrastructure. Packet radio is used by hobbyists, emergency services, and remote stations for reliable, wireless digital communication.
