The instructions I gave you require a Internet connection, and the connections are directly?via?the Interned.? I'm not sure how it would work via RF.?
What radio are you trying to connect to?? I've only tried the chat via the Internet, as?data transmissions are sort of frowned on the local RF system.? Who are you trying to chat with via the Radio??

Thanks Rusty.? No soap ? The one thing that gave me some hope
here was the "WL2K" pick, followed by Send -- which was not exactly
what I was doing.? Whe I tried this, there was no indication of a transmission.
Although again, if I go to Chat, dial to dead space, and do a chat/send then
PTT goes on, RED light so I think some stuff is working.? Incidentally, I did
confirm that I can send/rec via D-Rats on a landline.??

Of note, when I fire up D-Rats I do get a short RED light (transmission),
when I close the app, also get a short transmission. I think that's how
D-Rats works so that may be a good sign.? Hmmm,? the one thing that I
am now wondering about is "reach", that Winlink station is pretty far
from me.? I don't know what the actual Winlink Telnet protocol is, I'm
wondering if D-Rats has to "hear" the staiion your tuned to before it
trys to connect?? Maybe I need to give this a try at elevation, which I could do.

Oh!? I am running on a Mac to make things more challenging.
