I am connecting to a local Winlink RMS via VARA-FM. Although I get a connection, my outboxes messages aren't sent, and I'm not receiving any messages I have coming in.
I was going to ask if the message stuck in your outbox was P2P instead if Winlink format, but¡
In WinLink session window:
*** Connected to Winlink RMS: K7NWS-10 @ 2025/02/15 21:55:55 Freq: 439.825
BEARS West Tiger Mountain 47.5088N 121.9850W
*** Disconnected from Winlink RMS: K7NWS-10 @ 2025/02/15 21:56:02
I see where you connected to the RMS, but I don¡¯t see any evidence that it connected to a CMS.
Any chance there is an RF problem? Perhaps weak signals on either end, or multi-path distortion? Is your antenna fixed, or can you move or turn it?
Any ideas? I have one message in the outbox and one message that should be landing in my inbox.
Again, check to make sure the message and your outbox is not in P2P format, but my guess is that there a problem on RF. Either you are having trouble hearing the RMS, or the RMS is having trouble hearing you.
I'm using a Yaesu FT-991A, FM mode (same thing happens in DATA-FM). I have VARA-FM set to NARROW but also tried WIDE with the same results.
I would think that it should be WIDE, but perhaps someone else can confirm that.
PS - I sent a Winlink message to K7XST, so there should be at least that message in your inbox the next time you successfully connect.
