Hi Andrew,
Theoretically, yes. Realistically, probably not.
If the "server" software is available, and be made to run on typical PC CPUs, the answer is yes. I can't recall if the satellite/server side of the software is available or not...search around. The client side software was called PB and PG, so search for those. Also, you can search for pacsat protocol. There is a *nix version of these out there, too. I think the source code is posted. But for the satellite side (server)--not sure.

I also uploaded a file with WiSP. Hope you can download it OK.
It would be nice if other voice users did not transmit until the packet transmission has stopped though.
Patience gentlemen, please.
