Kirk:

30 minutes automatic connect times are OK during emergencies.  I think
somewhere in the docs they recommend 1 hour or more as a courtesy to others.
You can always connect on demand anytime.

When you were not able to connect was it a data or RF failure?

I think once you send one message, you are automatically registered.  You
need to set up a whitelist to receive emails or give special instructions to
your friends on how to code the message to override their not being on the
whitelist.  It's been so long since I set this up that I can recall the
exact instructions.

Both the winlink and airmail website's have guides plus there are more
guides others have written.

It's a challenge to get everything up and running just right.  Fortunately,
once it's done, it's done. Let me know how you fair with Vista.  I'm sure
I'll have to cross that road sometime (not too soon, I hope).

73, Dick, WN3R
