Digital Workshop, January 2022
The images above show our first meeting of 2022 with attendees configuring their home based equipment for use with FLDigi. From installation of the programs, configuration, and testing, each station was able to successfully pass traffic, and expected to operate when returned to each operator’s home base.
This meeting was held at the Androscoggin County Emergency Management Agency (ACEMA) Emergency Operations Center (EOC) located below the Lewiston Main Fire Station at 45 Oak Street.
David, WE1U, has provided a Get Started guide to help newcomers to the digital modes. The last part of the weekly net is dedicated to testing and passing digital messages. It’s good practice and identifies challenges.
You are welcome to check in to the net, or listen, each Thursday evening at 1930L on the 146.610 (-) 88.5 W1NPP repeater.
