History
The United States Air Force pioneered the use of IRBs with the modernization of the High Frequency Global Communications System (HFGCS) in 2000.[1]
This was followed closely by the introduction of several solutions publicly available in early 2000s by
- Keith Lamonica (W7DXX) and Bob Arnold (N2JEU), using an HTML form,[2]
- Stan Schretter (W4MQ), using a locally installed client and UDP,
- and Earl Claus (KB2LWS), using Flash, Remote Scripting, and XML.
