Winlink Catalog - WaveTalkers LIVE 103

Using The Winlink Catalog
Please Join Us this Sunday for WaveTalkers LIVE: Episode 103
This week the WaveTalkers crew dives into making Winlink Catalog Requests. There is an absolute ton of information you can access through the Winlink Catalog and we will walk you through how to access the catalog, update your data base, make requests and access the data.
The Winlink Catalog is one of the hidden gems of winlink. From accessing the latest weather reports, satellite images, GRIB files, news, help files, and much more.
We will also walk you through the process of using the updated ACCEPTLIST feature in winlink so you can better manage your winlink traffic during emergencies.
We will wrap up Episode 103 with an after party for all of those joining us in the Zoom. We would love to hear how you have used the Winlink Catalog.

The part that is the most fun for me being in North Tonawanda, NY, is that I'm close to a VaraFM AND a Winlink Packet gateway. I can connect to either with 3 watts from my VX7 and a J-Pole. When I'm using a laptop-based client, it's a Win7 Starter laptop that doesn't connect to the internet. But being able to "safely connect" to data is just great. (I also use WoAD on all of my Galaxy devices). Looking forward to the next live show. KB2HSH
