Of course, winlink-team changed, its not new for them.
Some 15-20 years ago they ended support of B1 forward-protocol
that any classic BBS system used. Reason was like "its obsolete".

But some other ten year later they "re-invent the wheel" making of
"radio only rms relay" that basically do same style of classic packet BBS - 
forward message to each other w/o internet.

Not blaming, just facts.



And thanks to G8BPQ from all of us, for excellent system BPQ that also support WL2K!

73, Sergej.
