Check this link http://www.outfittersatellite.com Sendmail http://www.sendmail.org/ HF radio requires an HF radio and a Terminal Node Controller (TNC). The Icom 710 and a Pactor III TNC work quite well. A ships license ($200) and a Restricted Radio Operators license ($50) are required to operate the HF radio. Of course they are also required to operate the VHF if outside US waters.
