    From Errol Casey@1:3634/58 to All on Mon Mar 31 00:26:07 2025
    Interested in learning if FuNet and Vkradio are stil active or not?

    FuNet info I found was last updated 2024; I submitted an application in 2024 for vkradio and never received a node #, etc.

    Thanks.

    I too applied for vkradio in 2024, but was told in another FTN that the network is on autopilot now, so unlikely you'll get a response.

    Not sure about FuNet, but VKradio has been dead for 3-4 years. Even
    when it was "alive", it was..... dead.

    As far as vkradio goes, I've sent off an email to see if I can get a
    response, at least. I guess we'll see what shakes out if anything.
