Which of the following describes Winlink?

  1. AAn amateur radio wireless network to send and receive email on the internet
  2. BA form of Packet Radio
  3. CA wireless network capable of both VHF and HF band operation
  4. DAll these choices are correct
Why Winlink is a worldwide radio email system that lets amateurs pass messages into and out of the internet email system through volunteer gateway stations. On VHF/UHF it commonly runs AX.25 packet radio, and on HF it uses modes such as Pactor, ARDOP, VARA HF and WINMOR, so it operates on both VHF and HF. Since it is a radio email network, is built on packet-style protocols, and works on both VHF and HF, every listed description fits.
Watch out Each single description is true but incomplete; picking just the email one or just the packet one ignores the others, and the pool wants the full picture.
Winlink = radio email, packet based, VHF and HF gateways. Three true statements means take the all-of-the-above choice.
