This Presentation is intended, primarily, for Australian radio amateurs, yachtsmen and outback travelers who would like to learn about Digital Amateur Radio Communications. Winlink, a volunteer amateur radio service, provides the world’s largest and most successful digital amateur radio communications network. What’s more, it provides the service for free.

It is assumed that a large proportion of the audience for this presentation has no earlier exposure to Winlink. Therefore, it has been kept as simple as possible. It briefly describes the main features only. Because Winlink has so many features it is not possible to cover all adequately in only 16 slides. However, the presentation was deliberately designed to take no longer than 30 minutes. This should allow extra time for questions and answers during an actual presentation or the preparation of questions to be put by email.

It is hoped that this presentation will help all with a possible interest in the subject decide whether they should join as Users, as a System Operator or assist in some other capacity. If not, please pass the information on to others who might need this service.
