    FT8 for pretty maps and SSTV to xmit memes sounds pretty good. Winlink if I’m feeling adventurous.

          Oh damn so…what? It transmits the contents into a format that actually registers as email? Some sort of analog to digital conversion?

            You’re a couple layers off in the protocol stack, but yes. AFSK (Audio Frequency Shift Keying) is a method by which digital data can be encoded on a narrow audio stream. It’s basically an old-school dial-up modem.

            You can create and/or interpret those audio streams on a smartphone or computer via a headphone jack to pump them to/from the radio.
