Last month we will had a presentation from Steve Waterman K4CJX about the SHARES program. The counterpoint of the SHARES program is Winlink, so this meeting we’re are going to learn a little more about it.

Winlink has become the de-facto standard for emcomm groups everywhere. It allows you to send and receive email messages using HF or VHF radio.

This meeting will serve as an introduction to Winlink, what you need to use it, and how it works. We’ll get into more details about operation at a later meeting.

This is an in person meeting and will also be available on Zoom and YouTube.
