Warren, It's my understanding that WINMOR is not going to be free software, that going to cost something. ? do you know what the price goig to be.? Russell

He has a WinLink server in California. He has thousands of emails passing through his server every day. WinLink is designed to use the expensive hardware TNC PACTOR I,II and III. It is great for emergency communication. Most Hams can not afford $1,100 to $1,600 for a the PACTOR III. This is where WINMOR comes in. WINMOR is a software solution using a soundcard connected to a HF radio via SignalLink interface, possibly other interfaces in the future. WINMOR could be a good solution for the client side but possibly not the server side. It does not appear to ready for primetime but looks very promising according to hams who are in the know. Pactor took over 15 years to get to its current evolution and the work was done by a very capable team of engineers. Building a software solution via a soundcard is a big challenge. I would like to know any of you have experience with WINMOR and or WinLink. I am one of those hams that does not have the funds for an expensive TNC but would like to experiment with WINMOR.
