Q2600 Are there some “maintenance” things I should be doing to keep AirMail and my part of WL2K running smoothly?

A2600 Yes, like most hardware and software, revisions occur.

  • Frequency List. See Q2560 and Q2570. This should be done every 1-2 months, only
    if you are using the HF part of WL2K

  • AirMail Catalog. You should probably update this 2-3 times each year. See Q1580
    and Q1600.

  • If you are using a TNC, update the Firmware. If you have a SCS TNC, it is updated
    about every year. Check the SCS web page for news about a new release. The latest is
    version 3.7. Your version number will show on the Terminal Window when you start up.
    The updating process is a shore chore, using the internet
    a) download from the SCS web page
    b) start AirMail
    c) Tools....Update PTC Firmware
    d) AirMail software. The latest version is 3.3.081. Available from www.winlink.org ....
