Hi everyone, my apologies in advance for reviving this topic but I am essentially starting from scratch. My question is, can someone provide me guidance to setup my FT5DR, laoptop and Soundmodem for Winlink operation. I have the cable from DR and believe I am ready to go. I am familiar with Soundmodem and have used it successfully with a Signalink. The DR will be a nice upgrade. I want to learn how to use it.
Could someone point me to instructions to setup the FT5DR for Winlink? I looked around here but no luck. I’m sure it is here and I have overlooked. 73, John - NO0I
In the meantime, if you follow the setup instructions for any HT, e.g. a Baofeng UV-5R, you will get 80-100% of the way to success. Unlike the Signalink, with the Digirig, you should choose to pull PTT rather than rely on VOX.
If someone should need some help they can dm me and I can attempt to walk you through…Caution…this is very tedious and time consuming sometimes…your odds may vary…
