Well it was a slow week this week with only 2 checking, both from the big Continent that is on the opposite side of the world from us Down Under. Just some upside down humor. Some interesting times for me, I have mentioned in the past that I was training and it has gotten in […]
Category: Winlink Checkin’s Weekly
VK/ZL Winlink Check-in’s. Updated weekly with check-in’s and a log of active gateways around VK & ZL.
Well the last week of January, the year has started interesting for those of us down under. It’s great to see peoples setup and operating equipment. If you want to share your station, your activities how you use Winlink or adventures using Winlink drop it in your check-in email and we can share. N0UYN Ben […]
Well the year has started well and there have been some interesting things and not so interesting things but that is for others to provide the news. I’m here to let you know that we have had only 3 check-ins this week, it’s still holiday time for some so we will get back into the […]

I have been asked by some, please don’t respond to all with long article’s or text and if you must remove the original text. There are some who rely on HF Winlink with slower protocols like ARDOP to actually communicate […]
Only a couple this week, Neil M0KNC is travelling and was able to get in portable. A Portable winlink connection on a SOTA activation attempt from Tony VK2VIC, SOTA Summit Saturday 14th Nov 2020 @ 0945hrs local. NSW Summit VK2/ST010 Mt Foxlow. Great to see some portable attempts around the place.
We had a bit of a quiet week, no one sent links or information on their setups especially portable stations for Winlink. It’s great news that the sunspots seem to be on the rise so the HF propagation will start getting better again. Great to see that people test their setups. I am in the […]
Winlink is a wonderful tool used by Amateur Operators around the world to send and receive email, especially when there is no other form of contact possible due to remoteness or infrastructure failure in their local area. My last mesg sent out was a staggering “Bytes: 904” of 194 words, 1034 characters and this is […]
