At the meeting, last night, we discussed (ever so briefly) the ability to use
Winlink over APRS (it's called APRSLink). In fact, APRSLink provides the only
way to get notified of pending APRS messages in the field without manually
checking Winlink every so often.
I've used this service for years and it really works well. I don't, however,
recommend using it to read messages as you'll end up reading the message on a
tiny screen and you won't be able to download the message later. But being
notified of pending messages is a great service!
Take a look and maybe we can all test this over the coming days/weeks.
