Recommendation
-- After a review of the Local
and Section ARES, RACES and national NTS
and NTSD requirements for public service,
and desiring to provide a means of rapidly
moving high volumes of radio email traffic
nationally, the committee judges that the Winlink 2000 system (WL2K) is the most feasible platform for this purpose when added to existing resources or deployed for the first time.
