Winlink Session Log Walkthrough
Winlink failures are usually audio, gateway choice, or time — not “HF is dead.” Log each session so your Emergency layer is evidence-based.
Pre-session
- Pre-write message in Winlink templates
- Check propagation for band
- Set audio per troubleshooting guide
During session
Note gateway ID, band, start/end UTC, and RMS success/fail reason. Screenshot or export from Winlink client if your EC requests proof of capability.
After session
Archive template + sent message in incident folder. Reference in PACE Emergency layer. Full workflow: Winlink session workflow.
