    Sounds to me this is pactor-III on the shortwave marine channels. “WXworx
    on water” is a company that offers that service (for way too much money of
    course). What the user does not seem to realize is that he could do the
    same for free on the Winlink2000 network (send/receive emails and get
    weather reports) and with many more land-based nodes than this WXworx seems
    to have. All it needs is a ham license but now that the morse requirement
    is gone for hams, that is very easy to get.
