Feasability of HF digital voice on a net

There is a net that is coming back to life on HF this january hopefully. In discussions someone broached the idea of those unable to connect via conventional means to participate via Skype or Echolink. First to be able to hear a 40 meter net is one thing. To share in that net without HF gear is another animal all together. I know the issues involved. Is it possible? I am thinking brighter minds could come up with a digital mode or create on that maybe uses some sort of method to translate a digital signal to narrow adio and back again to the recieving end. Even if no one could transmit it would be great to listen to the net via Echolink by using the audio coming from an HF rig into a sysop user link conference or has this ever been tried before?
