Sending your first Winlink message, demo - Winlink Basics

WaveTalkers host Chris Mattia, W6AH walks you through the interface of Winlink Express and helps you send and receive your first Winlink Message. In this foundational demo, we use telnet to help you send a message. This video outlines the core of sending and receiving messages with Winlink. In future episodes, we will add in the additional complexity of connecting to your ham radio for passing traffic.

    Please excuse my ignorance. How does a person choose the "right" session for a given group of messages? Is there a good listing of preferences for a particular circumstance or technical capability?

    Hey, great video! I can’t find the video in which you send mail just using the radio. Can you perhaps send me a link to the one? Thanks so much!! Gr

    Hi Tom, Yes, winlink can empower you to learn over the internet as it provides a pathway for sending and receiving emails when there is no internet connectivity available. There are limitations, especially in message size and attachments. But there is for instance an entire Winlink course available through the Catalog feature of winlink. It is all text based and self paced but certainly meets the criteria. good luck in getting your Ham Radio License, we have lots of helpful resources on WaveTalkers.com if you're interested. 73 and hope to talk to you on the air sometime.

    We always suggest operators learn the basics of sending winlink traffic using telnet first. This develops solid operating skills, practices, and experiences with the application and especially ICS forms. Choosing an RF mode, configuring the radio for that mode, etc comes second. That is covered in subsequent episodes and shows.
