Apparently it's still alive. I came across a local telnet BBS built by a Ham - Brian Rogers N1URO. The BBS is connected to a packet node that's linked to the world:
To get to his BBS, telnet to carnage.synchro.net port 2300 (after you create a login you can ssh to it on port 2200). If you need a client, there's info here.
(For the uninitiated - nostalgic hobbyists like me have resurrected the 80s/90s landline BBS phenomenon by making them accessible online.)
It's been a long time since I played with packet, and I barely remember how to use it, but I'm looking forward to getting back into it.
