@bud_t I just checked into the #FediFridayWinlinkNet using the WA3WLH-10 2m packet node via the CMLBK digipeater.
This time I used the Kenwood TH-D75 HT over Bluetooth instead of the IC-9100 I usually use for packet. What a marvelous HT this is! All on battery power.

I just checked into the #FediFridayWinlinkNet using the 40m AI4Y Ardop node. It was the 14th node that I tried that finally responded. Conditions must be a bit rough this late afternoon on 40m.
