One pleasant surprise i just had with my UV-Pro came when continuing my ongoing Winlink exercises.
A couple of weeks back I set up a Winlink Gateway in my shack for testing with the radio club / local fire department.

A VK2 in a W6 land!
Been into #AmateurRadio since I was a kid in Australia, but finally got my US license in 2017.
Network engineer in the past, now working as a manager of software engineers to fund my hobby habits.
I guess this may be written in the manual somewhere, but I really wasnt expecting that to happen.
This little radio just keeps surprising me!
For a lot of my coverage tests, I've been using my UV-Pro + RadioMail on my iPhone. This morning when I was testing, I forgot to change the channel over to the Winlink channel, but instead was on the local club repeater memory.
When RadioMail established the BLE TNC session it :
- automatically switched channels to the correct frequency
- Completed the session
- Returned me to the originaly memory channel I was on
@kelvin0mql it’s a Christmas Miracle!!!
Nothing like travel to stir the desire for even more travel!
Spent the morning wandering around Antigua Guatemala, followed by an ATV tour up a volcano for a sunset visit to a Hobbit Village!
Wikipedia100 years ago today, Australia's first public radio station, now called ABC Radio Sydney, did its first broadcast.
@bud_t Did you get a test yet? I can head out to the shack and try for you
