Larry, are there any PSK31 stations that function as packet gateways?



Not that I've ever heard of. PSK31 is for comms that don't have to be
perfect. HF fades, has tons of noise, lots of things that can trash the
data. It was never made for data, and PSK31 was never made for error
correction to overcome these errors, so it wouldn't be suitable for
connection to any packet gateway that requires perfect copy.

However, if you have a shore station friend to do the copy/paste to the
email system for you, he copies your messages on PSK31 and simply pastes it
into an email message on the net. Then, he can just dump all your emails
back to you in PSK31 during your schedule. That works just fine, but most
boat folks are too damned independent for their own good and would never
"impose" on someone like him ashore. Go figure. That's what ham radio is
all about in the first place....(c;
