Looks like this weekโs FFWN is going to be great! Sorry I canโt join in today. But YOU should!!!
It's time for another #FediFridayWinlinkNet with a twist! Today you are going to have *another ham* check you in! You need to ask a ham friend to email your check in. Bonus if you ask them via radio
Have then send a #winlink message with the following format:
To: W0RMT
Subject: FFWN
Line 1 text (*details for the station being checked in*): [callsign], [firstname], [city], [state/province/locale], [country], [mastodon username], [VHF/HF/APRS/Telnet]
Line 2: free text

@jeff the little digirig worked like a charm. All my RF #fedifridaywinlinknet checkins were by using VARA!
I maybe theoretically checked in for #FediFridayWinlinkNet via #APRS. No TX igates in my area so I'm not sure.
I checked in to the #FediFridayWinlinkNet!
I used HF and Telnet. Might try to get APRS in later today. I don't think I have any VHF nodes in the neighborhood. I'll do some poking around though. This is a great exercise!
YOU should check in! Even with Telnet (but get on the air if you can!).
Hey, if you have trouble, just shout. There are a ton of really helpful hams around here who will give you a hand!
Hey #Fedihams! It's time for another #FediFridayWinlinkNet! Today between 0000-2359 UTC, send a #winlink message with the following format:

*This week's task*: check in as many times as you can times using different modes (VHF/HF/APRS/Telnet). Let's see who use all 4 modes! And there may be others or hybrids.

We had 7 check-ins for yesterday's #FediFridayWinlinkNet ! It was cool to see everyone emailing each other via #Winlink as part of the net task. It looks like @KC8JC got the most emails!
The check-in list has been updated on the net page: https://coloradodigital.net/nets/fedifridaywinlinknet/

Hey #hamradio folks! I forgot to publish last week's #FFWN check-in list (from 8/18/23). We had 15 check-ins.
Take a look at it and see what you fellow #fedihams are interested in doing or learning in ham radio!
