Hi everyone,

This email is intended for anyone who wishes to learn about Winlink.

We are planning a Zoom meeting to explain Winlink and help with setup of Winlink Express. The Winlink system has numerous operating modes to accommodate all emergency situations which unfortunately, makes it complex.   This first zoom meeting will focus on installing and using Winlink Express using Telnet. In the meantime, here are some background information as well as links to help you get started. It would be beneficial to download Winlink Express and register an account prior to the zoom meeting.
