It's in the shack, sharing the one antenna with all the other modes :-) I use it to check into the Montco Thursday net and the Monday??? (almost twisted NS3K's arm) PDRA net. Ron NY3J

Thanks Jim, that did it. It even lets you send a Winlink email to a private email. So Marius Alpha dated 4/20/2020 beats Beta dated 4/21/2020. Alpha is always better than Beta :-) Nothing to install.
