Each vessel would be equiped with a PC, radio modem, software and SSB transceiver. I am looking for reccomendations on how to get this to work. This would be for commercial use, so this may not be the best place to post this request.

Any suggestions? Thanks. 73 If you use telnet to connect to a remote NOS station, then type ^] to escape to the telnet prompt. Then type: mode line and everything should be fine (your mileage may vary of course).
