This page is primarily intended for BBS sysops who may be interested in linking with our network, and for other people who may be interested in the types of networking links maintained by the Santa Clara County ARES/RACES packet network.
Just one link to the rest of the BBS network is theoretically sufficient to be able to deliver a message to any other BBS. But the more links to different BBSs, the fewer hops messages will take to reach that destination. The Santa Clara County ARES/RACES BBS network maintains forwarding links with the following BBSs.

The forwarding schedule changes over time for various reasons. We'll try to keep this page relatively up-to-date. Treat this information as "typical" or "representative".
