K7YVO runs an RMS Gateway station 24/7 under the
callsign of K7YVO-10 on the frequency of 144.930

Running a Radio Mail Server (RMS) gateway station is rewarding. Actually saving a life or a boat in distress, helping medical missions in far off jungles, and participating on local public service and emergency communications teams are some of the ways sysops use their radio assets for the public good. Almost weekly one of the Winlink sysops will receive direct, heartfelt thanks from an incident victim or their loved ones. Sysops often assist with the evacuation of a sick yachtsman for emergency treatment, locate an overdue yacht for a worried family, or help arrange medical supplies for a remote medical clinic. Many sysops support their communities as part of a local emergency network. EmComm organizations train and drill member sysops and radio email operators for emergency field deployments. Off the amateur bands, Winlink is a mainstay in MARS, SHARES, and is a last-resort communication tool for national, regional and local governments, NGOs and agencies. Our sysops often remark that their work with WL2K is the most deeply rewarding thing they do in amateur radio.
