I may have to use several stations to get
a connection (if it doesn't pick up after about 5 "rings" I terminate the
call, because if it can't hear me well enough to start, it's not likely to
persist) to accomplish the multipart upload.

There is one PMBO in Florida who almost never picks up on "5 rings"
but has an otherwise excellent station. I believe he keeps his rigs
on standby and requires a certain amount of time to get them back on
the air. If you connect immediately after he signs off with someone
else, his rig connects immediately.

The first 4 stations I try are in FL from this location.

Know which it is?

Thanks.

Sure.

November Zero India Alpha in Deltona, FL. One of the best PMBO
stations on Winlink in my opinion but frequently slow to connect.
