can digirig-mobile be used to run winlink via Vara and Packet on the same station? @JC-KM4PJZ
Yes, you can invoke VaraFM or Soundmodem (packet modem) from the same Winlink instance. As long as you call them one at-a-time they’ll work fine.
Running two modem apps at the same time is not going to work because both will try to access serial port for PTT by RTS. You can work around that by virtualizing the serial port.

Can I set up two instances of winlink, one for Vara and one for soundmodem/packet, and have them running at the same time while using the same radio and antenna?
I have not seen a lot of outside usage of my station, so packet and vara conflicts would be minimal if at all.
