Cruising Services & Supplies (CS&S) is a dealer for the SCS modem for use in pactor email applications using HAM and marine SSB radios.   Our primary business is SCS equipment sales, training and installation of AirMail and SailMail email SSB/HAM applications for cruisers.  Even though the logo above mentions sailors, I do support RV's, power boats, jungle adventures, government and "emergency stations" who need a "remote" email capability. 

If you currently have an SCS pactor modem and are having problems connecting to WinLink or a SailMail station, I will be able to determine the source of the problem and the solution.  If you need training, installation, or support for either SailMail or Airmail, I can definitely help you.  My services are geared to getting new HAM users and SailMail SSB users to a high degree of competency to send/receive email, obtain weather forecasts, and integrate their laptop or desktop into a marine environment.  I have installed and trained sailors to successfully use Icom, Kenwood, SGC, and SEA radios (M-700s, M-700pros, 706MKIIGs, 718s, M-710s, M-800s, M-802s, Kenwood 450s, and SGC-2000s) for AirMail and SailMail email.  Even  experienced HAM and SailMail users have found my services beneficial "to solving their connection problems".  To place an order or for questions, please call Dick Juppenlatz at 800 308-0739 or Skype me.  If no one is available (Dick or Gail) or we don't answer immediately on Skype My status, we are probably off sailing.  Please leave a message via Skype, email or phone and someone will call you back very soon.  Most of the clients are members of the Waterway Radio Cruising Club, the Seven Seas Cruising Association, or the Cruising Club of America.  If you are not a member of those organizations, I highly recommend you join them.  Those organizations and members can provide significant information to the cruising community.  Here's what a recent customer had to say about my services:

To Whom it May Concern,

Although I have held a ham radio license for 30 years, I was confused by the Pactor modem and Icom 710-RT which came with my used sailboat. Despite repeated attempts to get the modem to function I was stumped. Since we leave on a circumnavigation in a month, I needed to get this system running.

Dick Juppenlatz came to my boat in Annapolis and, within an hour, had the system running. Dick was superbly equipped with software, spare parts and accessories and was able to improve the reliability of the installation in record time.

My crew does not have any experience with HF communication, and Dick gave a superb primer on propagation. He is a patient instructor and, when teaching non-technical people, presents the information in the clearest way possible.

Dick presented us with a comprehensive guide to email and weather fax afloat. Superbly illustrated, the book is invaluable to any owner of an Icom radio and is vastly superior to any other similar on the subject. It really should be published!

While many potential clients might balk at paying for Dick's services - and we are on a cruiser's budget - I rate Dick as being one of the very best marine industry service providers in Annapolis and as being worth every penny. He does what he says he will do, when he says he will do it, and for a fair rate. I recommend him enthusiastically.

Sincerely,

Humperdinck Jackman
