Would use the textbox on echolink over RF if it was available?

It's already being developed :baby: , just curious as to who would use it.

Possibly

Is this like instead of patching repeaters/simplex links together your interfacing a packet node into it?

Negative. On Echolink, there is a "text box", more of a little chat in the bottom right corner on windows versions. It's allowing mobile stations with a TNC, to participate in the text chat on the echolink conference.

IDing isn't an issue, as Echolink automatically puts CALLSIGN> as the chat name.

So.. my question is.. would anyone use it?
