Hi Tomi.

The broadcasting of NODES to a spesific callsign is only i belive to be
found in Rob Janssen's netchl. It was designed, i belive, for use on point
to point links.

There are other very handy mechanisums included in netchl, one of which
Jonathan Naylor expressed his interest in a few years ago, of which all has
possably been forgotten.

At that time Rob Janssen was a subscriber to this list, if i remember
correctly he was willing to send protocol details to Jonathan, as to what
happend after that i dont know.

I belive it was in relation to;

IP multicasting/ routing of link IPnodes and Link quality.
