- Lower the MTU

- Use Mosh instead of SSH

- Spawn TMUX in the remote machine to send less bits per session

I tried Mosh+Tmux with 2.7 KBPS (and less) when I was using a data plan. It worked perfectly fine, no delay or barely noticeable.

And then you'd be able to hear the difference in the chat between the two machines! That's an amazing demo :-)

I used to use mosh and tmux over 9600bps AX.25 before I had 3G data, a very long time ago. Strictly speaking SSH over amateur radio breaks the rule about encryption but 144MHz is a big place with no-one in it, and you can't pay Ofcom to take an interest in what people do on amateur radio.
