[OZAPRS] (no subject)

[Marcus B]

Not history, but current, I'm amazed no one brought up Winlink. From my
very superficial understanding, Winlink is basically an email protocol that
can basically run on top of any data transport, but the most popular
transport is newer propriety PACTOR. It does appear that there are some out
there that are turned off by propriety protocols and run it over more open
transports. I haven't looked in to it much more than that.

There are people that have set up Winlink to download their own email in
emergency locations and then they use that to help civilians contact family
and pass on that they are OK. (As an example use case.)

73,
Marcus.
