*** Winlink Wednesday (Episode #480) ***
11/19/2025
Third Wednesday of the month, so check-ins using an attached Winlink-native ICS-213 form are requested. Step-by-step instructions are here if you need them:
https://winlinkwednesday.net/docs/Winlink_Wednesday_ICS-213_Check-In.pdf
If you cannot use the form, standard check-ins are always welcome (no weather snapshots, please). Please remember to always include the standard check-in in the form message.
Example:
WHO: All amateur radio operators
WHAT: Winlink Wednesday
WHEN: Wednesday, 19 November 2025, 0000-2359 (UTC: 1200 Tue - 1200 Thu)
HOW: This net will accept check-ins via Winlink only. Send a check-in via any RMS during the timeframe above, or participate in one or both of the P2P sessions.
Please do not use a "Telnet Winlink" connection (which defeats the purpose of Winlink). The goal is to have the message leave your station via RF.
Please remember to use the correct format: check-in message on a SINGLE LINE.
