Hello Randy, I've never done VARA, but now I know it's over Vhf....I do use winlink using my pactor modem and HF.... I know your currently in Oshkosh...wish I lived closer so I could visit....as I'm about 3.5 hours north in Eagle River, Wisconsin...Enjoy yourself there and I'll be trying to catch you during the W9W special event this week...
Did you pay for the vera license? That is so much faster when i use it over hf. Im still trialing it. I also noticed my downlink volume is always in the red. I assume I am over driving it?
