Hi Laura,

We will be meeting at Trailhead #4 and moving to Trailhead #2. Try to arrive at 0800 so we can set up and situate for wheels up at 0900. Bring a standard load out and any gear you was to test. We will work off of the club repeater 146.860 and try a few 20m and 40m meter contacts at the half way point. Be there or be square?

Re: RECOMMEND SUSPEND WINLINK HF and CMS (Telnet/internet) until MILTON hurricane passes.

 

didn't realize rms and cms were different layers, thought a node was rms if it had a radio connected and cms if it had internet configured. Good to know, and that vhf/uhf non-p2p use is still fine.

Email from your ISP (.gmail.com) to a winlink.org email address (n4txx@...) and vice versa will traverse the internet via CMS backbone. The RMS gateway will connect to CMS to transfer those messages to/from your winlink express client.

When using TELNET on winlink express or another client such as the RADIOMAIL iphone app, you are connecting to the CMS backbone hosted on Amazon AWS. You can see this in the connection log.

As for P2P, I’ve only used this winlink express mode on RACES HF exercises (which is now cancelled for this weekend).
