?
In USA you have GSM network.
Short messaging works also in CDMA if I have understood right.
TDMA I am not sure.
And the operators/carriers charge much less for text messages
there than here in Europe..
Some are told to let people send messages for free !
OH2HQ will use messaging for multiplier announcing
between stations.
If there is a netsite where we could post our score real-time
or near real-time, please do let us know.
