There is a useful script that will attempt to send two Winlink messages
at NWDR N7NIX repo
Procedure to create a debug info file
If you have problems please run pluchk1.sh and pluchk2.sh scripts and compose a regular e-mail to me attaching the requested files.
Create scripts pluchk1.sh & pluchk2.sh by opening your editor & copy & paste each of the scripts below to their respective files.
Make the scripts executable.
chmod +x pluchk1.sh
chmod +x pluchk2.sh
./pluchk1.sh
# using what ever mail client you have, compose a mail message and address it to yourself and n7nix
./pluchk2.sh
