Hi Kelley, > ... searching for settings specific to this unit for ARISS work
I'm not familiar with the Kantronics syntax for typing commands but see below for a general summary of the parameters you may find useful. ARISS has a summary of hardware TNC and soundcard TNC operations posted at: http://www.ariss.org/uploads/1/9/6/8/19681527/k9jkm_2012_symposium_ver 2.pdf (careful, might line wrap this URL) The list of parameters you will find useful but may need to adapt to Kantronics syntax: MYCALL - Your Callsign Default is NOCALL, but you want others to know you are there. DAYTIME - YYMMDDHHMM Used if you want to timestamp the packets you are receiving. MONITOR ON - Displays all packets on the frequency MALL ON - Displays all packets on the frequency (connected or unconnected) MCOM ON - Displays the AX.25 protocol with the message (might clutter your screen) MCON ON - Allow you to see all packets even when in CONVERS mode MSTAMP ON - Monitored packets are timestamped MRPT ON - Displays the entire digipeat path for the packets. CONSTAMP ON - Connect and disconnect status messages are timestamped HEADERLN ON - Header information is displayed on separate line from message text PASSALL ON - TNC will accept and display packets that have errors (noise). Partial packets, even with errors, are often still readable to the human eye. PASSALL OFF - TNC will only accept and display packets that have complete CRC. CONVERS <enter> - Mode to type packet message from keyboard directly to the TNC. Ctrl-C will exit CONVERS mode. MHEARD <enter> - Displays your TNC's "heard" list (updated only when PASSALL OFF) UNPROTO CQ VIA ARISS - Most basic string for ARISS to copy, route, and digipeat your packet -- 73 de JoAnne K9JKM [email protected] _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
