I tweaked settings and worked on it for hours.  At one point, neither VARA or Packet worked, but I got Packet back online. I am still not sure what's wrong with the VARA "side" of things, but it seems almost like VARA & Packet are trying to use the same com port.  I will contact Winlink tech support, tomorrow, and keep trying to get it working properly.
