Winlink 2000 was demonstrated last Thursday in our Communications Class.  I am planning to go up to Hamilton tonight to work on it a little more.  Tuesday nights would be a good night to play around with Winlink 2000.

  Bill. Is this material for packet operation? I would like to learn Winlink 
  2000 and its various components. Are you going to teach this material? Harry
