Bluntly, you are ignoring the reality of trends
in computer hardware.
Hi Rud,
There's no problem with the computer hardware,
simply a problem with the commercially made
interface between the computer and the radio.
Any interface that deletes part of the transmit
The article mentions WinLink developer Rick Muething.
Rick Muething installed the WinLink HF and VHF stuff in our area.
That was when we first noticed the new packet node with no callsign and the
alias OFF. - Illegal as you can get.
The OFF node cleverly screws up TheNet nodes so that the

This would be analogous to the delay they provide for

Hello Rud,
In asynchronous ARQ mode, in all cases, it is necessary to bit synchronize
the receiver as the receiver does not know when teh next frame is going to
be transmitted (reversely, in synchronous ARQ mode this is not necessary as
the RX knows exactly the time of the reception of the
What is the connection to the Winmor protocol here??

I agree with Skip on this Bonnie, the Signalink interface is a very good
digital interface and to write it off as a P.O.S is misinformed,
disingenuous, just plain wrong and potentially damaging to a small US
ham radio oriented company who manufacture quality products.
Just to reiterate I have
Just to add my two cents.
I do have a SL-1 that is used only for MT63 and HELL.
Having said that I have found no problem with it. Of
course they are not ARQ modes. I do use ARQ modes
a lot but also have the hardware to operate it.

I will consider this topic completed at this time. The comment
summary is that the product is good hardware device for most common
digital modes but may not work with ALE and AMTOR . Please refrain
from any personal attacks associated with this thread.

Steinar, I do not know the individuals concerned, they are probably
good hams. The undercurrent however, is the view of some, that the
SCAMP, WINLINK, AIRMAIL , TELPAC, system is not as open as radio
amateurs usually desire. When when one contrasts the openness of

I may have misread something in the original notice. That being the
proceedings of TAPR DC will be offered for sale by ARRL. I don't remember a

For the curious the winlink web site has a snapshot of the program running:
