We live stream every Sunday at 1pm PT / 4pm ET covering topics for ham radio operators and emergency communicators. For every show we encourage viewers to send a Winlink Check-in to us live during the show. We then dive into the topic for the week. We wrap up by bringing up a live map showing where everyone checked in from around the world.
We also publish instructional content on our channel and on our website.
If you are are new to ham radio or are looking to upgrade your license, check out our free study materials and practice tests for the Technician, General, and Amateur Extra license exams.
Ham radio is incredibly relevant today, especially for emergency communication, learning about the radio technology embedded in nearly every modern device, learning how to be a better communicator, meet new people from around the globe and the hobby is a ton of fun.

Making AREDN MESH Cables on a Field Deployment
During a field deployment we were asked to push live video for the command staff and evaluators to get a better view of the exercise.
We came prepared with the necessary equipment to establish an AREDN MESH Network with Real Time Streaming Cameras that could be leveraged to accomplish this mission. There was only one problem, we needed more network cables. A run out to a store or ordering them on-line was not an option, we had to make our own in the field.
A cold rain had been pouring on us all morning. These conditions made my fingers numb and stiff, making a seemingly simple task exponentially more difficult.

Running a hybrid digital and voice ham radio net - Winlink Basics
Don’t all the stations need to be on the same frequency for this to work?
Yes, all stations in the digipeating chain need to be on the same frequency.
Question, are all nodes stationary? Or can I pack up gear, hike somewhere, setup said gear, and connect to other AREDN nodes?
Node can be moved to new locations. The trick with this is you need to establish a new line of sight fix on a node already on the mesh if you want to connect to the larger mesh. If you are going to create your own island chain of nodes then you just need line of sight between nodes. I've used this several times and simply had one node connect via a tunnel to a distant node to bridge the networks. very flexible.
That HT does not support VARA FM WIDE. Better if you use VARA FM Narrow.
Very true. Setting VARA FM to narrow would be more optimum for this particular HT. However, as I use a variety of radios with my Vara setup, and wide will gracefully fall back to narrow, I simply leave it on wide and cut down on the various settings that have to be changed when changing radios. It does take a little longer and if it becomes an issue it is easy to adjust. thanks for the feedback.
Great presentation
I'm a fairly new ham who just got into Winlink. I have a Macbook, so I've been using Pat as my Winlink client, Hamlib/rigctld for rig control, and Vara running through crossover. It's been working great with my FT-710. Thanks for making all this great content!
Good jobs guys. The wavetalkers channel is doing very well.
thanks @halledwardb
Excellent very informative video! Thanks for posting, hope this gets my VARA FM up and running!
thanks @neubert500
Another great video. Thanks for posting!
Sound Control - look for the large “SET AS DEFAULT” Button and drop down at bottom of Sound Control window.
Great show, especially to help some of the newer hams who only have HTs in our EMCOMM groups get into Winlink.
thanks @billheyde6932
Great presentation. Loved the antenna adapter. Great for attaching an outside antenna to get a better signal.
ATOC: good to know.
I wish I had an fm winlink node closer to my town. 120 miles is a long haul for an HT.
That means that there is an opportunity for you to be the first to set up a Winlink gateway in your area (hi hi).
Great show, very helpful and cost effective
Small HT-based Winlink stations are very useful for training and tabletop exercises
that is exactly what we have found. while they may not be ideal for field work, they are excellent learning tools to prove concepts and get someone up to speed for a very low cost. Transitioning to higher quality gear down the road becomes an easy upgrade once an operator is comfortable with the basics.
The 90-degree antenna connector is a good idea.
thanks, the biggest benefits I've seen with the 90 antenna connector are 1) the HT can lay on its back where it is most stable and 2) with BNC connectors it is extremely fast to implement.
I have had great success with the Quansheng UV-K5, NA6D All-in-one-Cable (AIOC), and the Digirig Shielded Short USB-A to USB-C Cable with Ferrites. It turns out to be remarkably robust.
Now, rather than walking people through the process of building stations one at a time, I can just have them watch this video.
This is an exceptional explanation of how to set up an HT-based Winlink station! It covers all of the critical steps very well.
thanks @LoganKD6LLB
Great content. Definitely a challenge to get better.
Outstanding presentation. I've emailed this to myself for future step by step setup. 73, Gene N3XUS WRZT775
Great episode, to much information to digest all now. I would love to have a separate episode about vlan. I understand that is needed to shield different areas from each other? I'm just know a little about networking while you're clearly the expert!
Electric cars also.
So, what frequency does one use to send these messages? What is on the "other end"?
When you select a mode in Winlink and open a session, there will be a list of gateways and their frequencies. There are gateways in the HF, VHF, and UHF bands.
So.... you must have a computer "hooked up to" your radio, then? How does that hook up exactly? What wires/plugs/coax are needed???
There are several interfaces that work with a variety of radios. We cover this in several of our LIVE episodes and on our website. See WaveTalkers LIVE episodes 2, 33, 63,. We also have several dedicated videos on our channel for other interfaces.
Great timing! I'm preparing to upgrade my internet service(s) and home network(s) in the very near future. The discussion today touched on several things I need to consider and gave me some good ideas. Thanks for another helpful episode!
Thanks, glad it's helpful.
Awesome!
Thanks
Great show
Thanks for learning with us!
Good Monday morning 🌄

Thank you, very helpful.
Thanks for learning with us!
Yeah, but it doesn't twice the voltage coming into the controller compensate any with the in series method? Please explain in a nice video what's the advantages and disadvantages of each way to connect two panels. Thank you 🌞
Thanks for the video. Glad I watched it before spending days setting this up
Can you use DigiRig without a HAM license?
@@J.R.1111 you need a license to transmit on the ham bands.
So you need a HAM license to transmit a email message that only one person can read?. That would seem trivially irrelevant to the FCC, I would think Second question, can you only send DigiRig emails over the licensed HAM bands, buy not over other license free bands, like MURS or FRS?
Capellini is very high Q. Lasagna would be more broadband.
Ok, This is the 4th time I have watched this and I am finally getting to understand how to setup my Gateway. The -10, -4, -6 in our area. I am excited to have this up and running and to be a digipeater. Thks
I have a question can I use a SCU-20 for VARA for my FTM100 I wish touse the free for now as I am now retired and am saving for a new radio
Nice! Thank you for sharing!
@nswrfs (the New South Wales Rural Fire Service here in Australia) has just posted a short video about the deployment of one of their Large Air Tankers to help with the fire situation in Californina: ruclips.net/video/CxO_SwnxVxE/видео.html
Nice and clear .
Need to try this for QO-100 😂
As always, excellent program. I learned how to add a webpage to my Android home screen. 😁
Such a helpful tip @i8BBQ4Lunch thanks for learning with us!
An unusually helpful episode for a volunteer Emergency Manager from New Jersey. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Minor slip there - I'm in Australia, not New Zealand. 🤭 You're thinking of Terry ZL1HOG, who usually checks in, but was absent this week. Also, in the International Resources section, my link to the New South Wales Rural Fire Service is incorrectly labeled with the CalFire resource text. 73 and thanks as usual, Richard VK2SKY
My favourite sitrep tool is the New South Wales government's "Hazards Near Me" app.
@vk2sky I discover I posted the wrong link, sorry correcting that. Yikes and ZL, doh! Apologies
@@WaveTalkers No worries Chris, I'll tell my friends at the Australian embassy to stand down. 😛
@@vk2skyoh that’s a relief. The page has been updated at cq.wavetalkers.com/dashboard
@@WaveTalkers One other very minor detail: Down Under, what you guys call wildfires, we call Bushfires. 🙃
KB3NFQ Checking In
thanks for learning with us!
What do you mean 1200, not 9600?
What size ferrites do you have on the Anker splitter? I have the same one.
can I use a rig blaster other than a signalinkusb I am planning to use a FT7900
Thanks Guys KF7BWS
