Our October meeting featured not only a presentation on antenna analyzing tools by Allen Wolff KC7O, but also Jeff Liter W2JCL discussing how to use Winlink during emergencies.
Jeff illustrated six Winlink templates that could be useful in an emergency:
- South Pasadena Disaster Information Report
- USGS Did You Feel It? Report
- ARRL Radiogram
- GPS/APRS Position Report
- SMS Text Message
- Severe Weather Report
Jeff created the South Pasadena-specific form himself and has made it available to all SPARC members.

Once downloaded and unzipped, install the templates in the following Windows directory:
