[TMRA] (NBEMS) Narrow Band Emergency Messaging System

[Steve Bellner]

For those who are interested in Emergency communications including 
learning how to use The National Traffic System which includes passing 
radiograms, I invite you to participate in the TMRA Digital Net (TMRADN)

To get started learning how to use Soundcard digital modes download 
these programs onto your laptop or computer:

·*fldigi*

·*flmsg*

·*flamp*

You can download *_FLDIGI_* for windows or Linux from this web page:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/fldigi/files/fldigi/

You can download *_FLMSG_* and *_FLAMP_* for windows or Linux from this 
web page:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/fldigi/files/?source=navbar

As a side note, these programs are not just for Emcomm but can be used 
for basic amateur radio communications or even for contesting.

Once you have them downloaded install them on your computer or laptop.

Even though the video includes using a soundcard interface, you may 
still operate without one.

Even though this video talks about calibrating your sound card, you may 
skip that step.
