Hello all, For the curious the winlink web site has a snapshot of the program running:
< http://www.winlink.org/node/341 > There are other tidbits that have surfaced in the winlink forums.... Very little hard data has surfaced, just some tidbits in the winlink forums. Based on past comments, I'd expect it to be similar to P1/2 in some aspects. (Symbol rate, turnaround time, etc). But that's just me reading between the lines. But I'll keep my RTS/CTS keying, AMTOR is not the only mode that needs that! My gut sense is that if there is a license fee it will be reasonable. They are looking for penetration and a viable alternative to the largest criticism of the current system. (expensive, sole source modems) I would not expect it to be reusable as a DLL, but we can hope! That would be the best case. I've found some of the developers to be open to interoperation & reuse. Others view any thing that could compete with WL2K/P3 as a threat. My belief is that ham radio in general benefits the more we collaborate and design for interoperability. Have fun, Alan km4ba
