Test Posting-December 23, 2005

This is a test posting send from WINGS via HF Radio. Using this technique, we can post to our blogs while sailing. Of course, if we had a good satellite system we wouldn't need to use the HF Radio, but, economics and the lack of technology for a cruising sailboat in SE Asia makes that impractical.

AND...No Photos with this technique, sorry.

Fred Roswold, SV Wings
