I will use Winlink, JS8CALL, PSK as I did last year. This year I would like to add VARAC. It is an EmCOMM exercise and I think that makes sense.
Anyone else doing WFD? Watch for W8TNO (our club call) Oakland County Amateur Radio Society (OCARS). 73 Doug N8VY
After watching several set up video to confirm my settings I’m having trouble making contacts. Previously, I had no issues in making contacts but after a couple of months off, I’m only receiving but not able to connect. I noticed on my icon 7300 there is no ALC reading when transmitting. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

One critical thing you left out, when transmitting with VarAC/VARA what is your power output???
Released today, not sure what is new.
Added special SSID extension "-L", required for a new Winlink RMS Relay feature.
There are -T,-R,-X and -L special SSID extensions
I am trying to get VarAC with Varafm setup on my ic 705, but am having a problem I cant seem to get to the bottom of. I can connect varafm to the radio and test for signal, and I can test the PTT in the settings of varAC and they both work ok seperately. but when I try to cq or beacon nothing is being sent as varAC is not communicating with varafm. All ports seem correct. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for the advice, manage to get it sorted. I missed a setting in varAC in data mode. It was set to usb data and should have been fm data.
Bill;
where do I find the January announcements? I am new to the forum
