Send SMS via Ham Radio, Mobilinkd
Ғылым және технология
Let's hike deep into Desolation Wilderness on the Rubicon Trail and send an SMS message via an Amateur radio on the Mobilinkd. There is absolutely no other form of communication other than smoke signals here. The XYL is much more open to backpacking if we can keep in touch with family. Ham radio for the win!

great job
Ok Cool, yes it's an old video, but my daughters both 11, and 14, are generals, and just got their Mobilink 4, as we couldn't get the 3 for what seemed like forever. Awesome demo.
Thank you for mention the Mobilinkd product. Most with APRS radios would not think of adding something to their radio. Having a real keyboard really helps too. Yes there are iOS versions.
Great video! Always great to see real world applications of APRS
Hi Craig very beautiful scenery
I did not know about the ? after the number for confirmation. Thank for that tip.
The "glitch" with the case pressure turning the unit on and off is probably because of a swollen battery. My TNC3 had a problem with the battery and the good people of Moblilink'd replaced it under warrantee. Another big plus for using this and the APRSdroid application is the ability to use "voice to text" in the drafting of messages (SMS or otherwise). You can really carry on a conversation via v2t. Great Vid~ See any Sasquatch on your outing? 73 Bigfoot Radio Net!
The TNC3 is supposed to now work with iOS devices. Should also handle Winlink Packet mode as well.

I have a MobilinkD TNC3, I find it too perfidious. It performs occasional stunts, but it is a not reliable service.
Would love to see a shootout with DigiPi, Mobilikd, and the BTECH APRS-K1 Cable direct to the phone. TNX K4RJJ

@@solidstrike165 This shows good operation as well. Most new laptops have the same TRRS audio as cellphones. Wonder if you could use sound card modes and Direwolf on a laptop with one of these cables? kzread.info/dash/bejne/f22ro6ZxepCvgco.html
Too bad this service is no longer available.
I think she'd need to reply with a message starting with your callsign with an @ in front of it. You'd obviously need to instruct her on that before you leave town.

Yah, but she'd never remember those instructions. In my experience the person need only reply like they would to any other person.

@@KM6LYW How does the message get routed to the correct callsign if the person sending the SMS from their phone omits the @callsign from the start of the message?
I can do this with My Yeasu FT5D,
to bad its sold out due to global chip shortages. and yeah it would work with apple os if you could buy one. lol
This is fantastic if you don’t have internet connection
Why is everything non-american called weird?

Beautiful place to be off grid! I love my Mobilinkd, but I think I killed its battery leaving it in the car over the Maine winter. I have the cables for it to connect to my Baofeng and my Yaesu 7800r. I was able to connect to packet radio nodes and APRS while the kit ran in my car and I sat in a warm building near a window with my laptop. Great tool for emcomm team stuff. de KC1JMH
baofeng can text without digipeater and mobilink. yaesu is 10 yrs behind as usual.
