WoAD

Bringing the functionality of Winlink to your Android device

The use of WoAD requires a valid amateur radio license. Do not use, install, or download WoAD unless you have a valid amateur radio license, or a license from a participating government service or agency. Ship station, marine or general radiotelephone licenses do not qualify.

WoAD can be used as a client of the Winlink Global Radio EmailⓇ system or for direct connection to a peer-to-peer (P2P) capable client, via either the internet or a VHF/UHF AX.25 packet connection.

You are strongly encouraged to read through the WoAD documentation (available at https://woad.sumusltd.com/documentation) before use. You can also install WoAD for free, through an apk file available at https://woad.sumusltd.com/download.

WoAD, like much of ham radio, is highly technical in nature. For those unfamiliar with packet radio and/or Winlink the learning curve may be steep and frustrating.

Should you encounter a problem or roadblock while running WoAD there are several resources available to you:

* the documentation: always a good place to start and always expanding.

* the support group: a community of WoAD users who may be able to provide assistance.

* bug report page: for when the problem is with WoAD itself. Please take the time to submit a bug report (even if it is just a typo) as everyone will benefit.

* feature request: for when WoAD is missing an opportunity to be more useful or less irritating.
