\b> Set an accept filter line for announce
-
-
- Create an 'accept this announce' line for a filter.
-
- An accept filter line means that if the announce matches this filter
- it is passed onto the user. See HELP FILTERS for more info. Please
- read this to understand how filters work - it will save a lot of grief
- later on.
-
- You can use any of the following things in this line:-
-
-
-
- info <string> eg: iota or qsl
- by <prefixes> eg: G,M,2
- origin <prefixes>
- origin_dxcc <numbers> eg: 61,62 (from eg: sh/pre G)
- origin_itu <numbers>
- origin_zone <numbers>
- by_dxcc <numbers>
- by_itu <numbers>
- by_zone <numbers>
- channel <prefixes>
- wx 1 filter WX announces
- dest <prefixes> eg: 6MUK,WDX (distros)
-
-
-
- some examples:-
-
-
-
- acc/ann dest 6MUK
- acc/ann 2 by_zone 14,15,16
- (this could be all on one line: acc/ann dest 6MUK or by_zone 14,15,16)
-
-
-
- or
-
- acc/ann by G,M,2
-
-
-
- This filter would only allow announces that were posted buy UK
- stations. You can use the tag 'all' to accept everything eg:
-
-
-
- acc/ann all
-
-
-
- but this probably for advanced users...

\b> Set an accept filter line for spots
-
-
- Create an 'accept this spot' line for a filter.
-
-
- An accept filter line means that if the spot matches this filter it is
- passed onto the user. See HELP FILTERS for more info. Please read this
- to understand how filters work - it will save a lot of grief later on.
-
- You can use any of the following things in this line:-
-
-
-
- freq <range> eg: 0/30000 or hf or hf/cw or 6m,4m,2m
- on <range> same as 'freq'
- call <prefixes> eg: G,PA,HB9
- info <string> eg: iota or qsl
- by <prefixes>
- call_dxcc <numbers> eg: 61,62 (from eg: sh/pre G)
- call_itu <numbers>
- call_zone <numbers>
- by_dxcc <numbers>
- by_itu <numbers>
- by_zone <numbers>
- origin <prefixes>
- channel <prefixes>
-
-
-
- For frequencies, you can use any of the band names defined in
- SHOW/BANDS and you can use a subband name like: cw, rtty, data, ssb -
- thus: hf/ssb. You can also just have a simple range like: 0/30000 -
- this is more efficient than saying simply: freq HF (but don't get too
- hung up about that)
-
- some examples:-
-
-
-
- acc/spot 1 on hf/cw
- acc/spot 2 on vhf and (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
-
-
- You can use the tag 'all' to accept everything, eg:
-
-
-
- acc/spot 3 all
-
-
-
- but this probably for advanced users...

\b> set an accept WCY filter
-
-
- It is unlikely that you will want to do this, but if you do then you
- can filter on the following fields:-
-
-
-
- by <prefixes> eg: G,M,2
- origin <prefixes>
- origin_dxcc <numbers> eg: 61,62 (from eg: sh/pre G)
- origin_itu <numbers>
- origin_zone <numbers>
- by_dxcc <numbers>
- by_itu <numbers>
- by_zone <numbers>
- channel <prefixes>
-
-
-
- There are no examples because WCY Broadcasts only come from one place
- and you either want them or not (see UNSET/WCY if you don't want
- them).
-
- This command is really provided for future use.
-
- See HELP FILTER for information.

\b> Set an accept WWV filter
-
-
- It is unlikely that you will want to do this, but if you do then you
- can filter on the following fields:-
-
-
-
- by <prefixes> eg: G,M,2
- origin <prefixes>
- origin_dxcc <numbers> eg: 61,62 (from eg: sh/pre G)
- origin_itu <numbers>
- origin_zone <numbers>
- by_dxcc <numbers>
- by_itu <numbers>
- by_zone <numbers>
- channel <prefixes>
-
-
- for example
-
-
-
- accept/wwv by_zone 4
-
-
-
- is probably the only useful thing to do (which will only show WWV
- broadcasts by stations in the US).
-
- See HELP FILTER for information.

- to remove the whole filter.
-
- If you have a filter:-
-
-
-
- acc/spot 1 on hf/cw
- acc/spot 2 on vhf and (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
-
-
- and you say:-
-
-
-
- clear/spot 1
-
-
-
- you will be left with:-
-
-
-
- acc/spot 2 on vhf and (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
-
-
-
- If you do:

- clear/spot all
-
-
-
- the filter will be completely removed.

- 1\b12\b2.\b.1\b10\b0.\b. d\bdb\bba\bav\bva\bai\bil\bl
-
- d\bdb\bba\bav\bva\bai\bil\bl Show a list of all the databases in the system
-
-
- The title says it all really, this command lists all the databases
- defined in the system. It is also aliased to SHOW/COMMAND.
-
-
- 1\b12\b2.\b.1\b11\b1.\b. d\bdb\bbs\bsh\bho\bow\bw
-
- d\bdb\bbs\bsh\bho\bow\bw <\b<d\bdb\bbn\bna\bam\bme\be>\b> <\b<k\bke\bey\by>\b> Display an entry, if it exists, in a database
-
-
- This is the generic user interface to the database to the database
- system. It is expected that the sysop will add an entry to the local
- Aliases file so that users can use the more familiar AK1A style of
- enquiry such as:
-
-
-
- SH/BUCK G1TLH
-
-
-
- but if he hasn't and the database really does exist (use DBAVAIL or
- SHOW/COMMAND to find out) you can do the same thing with:
-
-
-
- DBSHOW buck G1TLH
-
-
-
- 1\b12\b2.\b.1\b12\b2.\b. d\bdi\bir\bre\bec\bct\bto\bor\bry\by

- You can use shell escape characters such as '*' and '?' in the <call>
- fields.
-
- You can combine some of the various directory commands together eg:-
-
-
-
- DIR TO G1TLH 5
- or
- DIR SUBJECT IOTA 200-250
-
-
-
- You can abbreviate all the commands to one letter and use ak1a
- syntax:-
-
-
-
- DIR/T G1* 10
- DIR/S QSL 10-100 5
-
-
-
- 1\b12\b2.\b.1\b13\b3.\b. d\bdx\bx

-
-
- This is how you send a DX Spot to other users. You can, in fact, now
- enter the <freq> and the <call> either way round.
-
-
-
- DX FR0G 144.600
- DX 144.600 FR0G
- DX 144600 FR0G
-
-
-
- will all give the same result. You can add some remarks to the end of
- the command and they will be added to the spot.
-
-
-
- DX FR0G 144600 this is a test
-
-
-
- You can credit someone else by saying:-
-
-
-
- DX by G1TLH FR0G 144.600 he isn't on the cluster
-
-
-
- The <freq> is compared against the available bands set up in the

-
-
- All commands can be abbreviated, so SHOW/DX can be abbreviated to
- SH/DX, ANNOUNCE can be shortened to AN and so on.
-
- Look at the APROPOS <string> command which will search the help
- database for the <string> you specify and give you a list of likely
- commands to look at with HELP.

\b> Set a reject filter for announce
-
-
-
- Create an 'reject this announce' line for a filter.
-
- An reject filter line means that if the announce matches this filter
- it is passed onto the user. See HELP FILTERS for more info. Please
- read this to understand how filters work - it will save a lot of grief
- later on.
-
- You can use any of the following things in this line:-
-
-
-
- info <string> eg: iota or qsl

\b> Set a reject filter line for spots
-
-
- Create a 'reject this spot' line for a filter.
-
- A reject filter line means that if the spot matches this filter it is
- dumped (not passed on). See HELP FILTERS for more info. Please read
- this to understand how filters work - it will save a lot of grief
- later on.
-
- You can use any of the following things in this line:-
-
-

- r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\by R\bRR\bR <\b<m\bms\bsg\bgn\bno\bo>\b> Reply to the specified message with read receipt
-
-
- You can reply to a message and the subject will automatically have
- "Re:" inserted in front of it, if it isn't already present.
-
- You can also use all the extra qualifiers such as RR, PRIVATE,
- NOPRIVATE, B that you can use with the SEND command (see SEND for
- further details)
-
-
-
- 1\b12\b2.\b.2\b23\b3.\b. s\bse\ben\bnd\bd
-
- s\bse\ben\bnd\bd <\b<c\bca\bal\bll\bl>\b> [\b[<\b<c\bca\bal\bll\bl>\b> .\b..\b..\b.]\b] Send a message to one or more callsigns
- s\bse\ben\bnd\bd R\bRR\bR <\b<c\bca\bal\bll\bl>\b> Send a message and ask for a read receipt
- s\bse\ben\bnd\bd C\bCO\bOP\bPY\bY <\b<m\bms\bsg\bgn\bno\bo>\b> <\b<c\bca\bal\bll\bl>\b> Send a copy of a message to someone

-
-
- All the SEND commands will create a message which will be sent either
- to an individual callsign or to one of the 'bulletin' addresses.
-
- SEND <call> on its own acts as though you had typed SEND PRIVATE, that
- is it will mark the message as personal and send it to the cluster
- node that that callsign is connected to.
-
- You can have more than one callsign in all of the SEND commands.
-
- You can have multiple qualifiers so that you can have for example:-
-
-
-
- SEND RR COPY 123 PRIVATE G1TLH G0RDI
-

\b] Show the local time
-
-
- This is very nearly the same as SHOW/TIME, the only difference the
- format of the date string if no arguments are given.
-
- If no prefixes or callsigns are given then this command returns the
- local time and UTC as the computer has it right now. If you give some
- prefixes then it will show UTC and UTC + the local offset (not
- including DST) at the prefixes or callsigns that you specify.

-
-
- If you just type SHOW/DX you will get the last so many spots (sysop
- configurable, but usually 10).
-
- In addition you can add any number of these options in very nearly any
- order to the basic SHOW/DX command, they are:-
-
-
-
- on <band> - eg 160m 20m 2m 23cm 6mm
- on <region> - eg hf vhf uhf shf (see SHOW/BANDS)
-
- <number> - the number of spots you want
- <from>-<to> - <from> spot no <to> spot no in
- the selected list
-
- <prefix> - for a spotted callsign beginning with <prefix>
- *<suffix> - for a spotted callsign ending in <suffix>
- *<string>* - for a spotted callsign containing <string>
-
- day <number> - starting <number> days ago
- day <from>-<to> - <from> days <to> days ago
-
- info <text> - any spots containing <text> in the info or remarks
-
- by <call> - any spots spotted by <call> (spotter <call>
- is the same).
-
- qsl - this automatically looks for any qsl info on the call
- held in the spot database.
-
- iota [<iota>] - If the iota island number is missing it will
- look for the string iota and anything which looks like
- an iota island number. If you specify then it will look
- for that island.
-
- qra [<locator>] - this will look for the specific locator if
- you specify one or else anything that looks like a locator.
-
-
-
- e.g.
-
-
-
- SH/DX 9m0
- SH/DX on 20m info iota
- SH/DX 9a on vhf day 30

- type:-
-
-
-
- SH/FILES <filearea>
-
-
-
- where <filearea> is the name of the filearea you want to see the
- contents of.
-
- You can also use shell globbing characters like '*' and '?' in a
- string to see a selection of files in a filearea eg:-

\b] Show moon rise and set times
-
-
- Show the Moon rise and set times for a (list of) prefixes or
- callsigns, together with the azimuth and elevation of the sun
- currently at those locations.
-
- If you don't specify any prefixes or callsigns, it will show the times
- for your QTH (assuming you have set it with either SET/LOCATION or
- SET/QRA), together with the current azimuth and elevation.
-
- In addition, it will show the gain or loss dB relative to the nominal
- distance of 385,000Km due to the ellipsoidal nature of the orbit.
-
- If all else fails it will show the Moonrise and set times for the node
- that you are connected to.

\b] Show the likely propagation to
- <prefix>
-
-
- This command allow you to estimate the likelihood of you contacting a
- station with the prefix you have specified. The output assumes a
- modest power of 20dBW and receiver sensitivity of -123dBm (about
- 0.15muV/10dB SINAD)
-
- The result predicts the most likely operating frequencies and signal
- levels for high frequency (shortwave) radio propagation paths on
- specified days of the year and hours of the day. It is most useful for
- paths between 250 km and 6000 km, but can be used with reduced
- accuracy for paths shorter or longer than this.
-
- The command uses a routine MINIMUF 3.5 developed by the U.S. Navy and
- used to predict the MUF given the predicted flux, day of the year,
- hour of the day and geographic coordinates of the transmitter and
- receiver. This routine is reasonably accurate for the purposes here,
- with a claimed RMS error of 3.8 MHz, but much smaller and less complex
- than the programs used by major shortwave broadcasting organizations,
- such as the Voice of America.
-
- The command will display some header information detailing its
- assumptions, together with the locations, latitude and longitudes and
- bearings. It will then show UTC (UT), local time at the other end
- (LT), calculate the MUFs, Sun zenith angle at the midpoint of the path
- (Zen) and the likely signal strengths. Then for each frequency for
- which the system thinks there is a likelihood of a circuit it prints a
- value.
-
- The value is currently a likely S meter reading based on the
- conventional 6dB / S point scale. If the value has a '+' appended it
- means that it is 1/2 an S point stronger. If the value is preceeded by
- an 'm' it means that there is likely to be much fading and by an 's'
- that the signal is likely to be noisy.
-
- By default SHOW/MUF will show the next two hours worth of data. You
- can specify anything up to 24 hours worth of data by appending the no
- of hours required after the prefix. For example:-
-
-
-
- SH/MUF W
-
-
-
- produces:
-
-
-
- RxSens: -123 dBM SFI: 159 R: 193 Month: 10 Day: 21
- Power : 20 dBW Distance: 6283 km Delay: 22.4 ms
- Location Lat / Long Azim
- East Dereham, Norfolk 52 41 N 0 57 E 47
- United-States-W 43 0 N 87 54 W 299
- UT LT MUF Zen 1.8 3.5 7.0 10.1 14.0 18.1 21.0 24.9 28.0 50.0
- 18 23 11.5 -35 mS0+ mS2 S3
- 19 0 11.2 -41 mS0+ mS2 S3
-
-
-
- indicating that you will have weak, fading circuits on top band and
- 80m but usable signals on 40m (about S3).
-
- inputing:-
-
-
-
- SH/MUF W 24
-
-
-
- will get you the above display, but with the next 24 hours worth of
- propagation data.
-
-
-
- SH/MUF W L 24
- SH/MUF W 24 Long
-
-
-
- Gives you an estimate of the long path propagation characterics. It
- should be noted that the figures will probably not be very useful, nor
- terrible accurate, but it is included for completeness.

-
-
- This is a multipurpose command that allows you either to calculate the
- distance and bearing between two locators or (if only one locator is
- given on the command line) the distance and beraing from your station
- to the locator. For example:-
-
-
-
- SH/QRA IO92QL
- SH/QRA JN06 IN73
-
-
-
- The first example will show the distance and bearing to the locator
- from yourself, the second example will calculate the distance and
- bearing from the first locator to the second. You can use 4 or 6
- character locators.
-
- It is also possible to convert a latitude and longitude to a locator
- by using this command with a latitude and longitude as an argument,
- for example:-

- data
-
-
- Show the tracking data from your location to the satellite of your
- choice from now on for the next few hours.
-
- If you use this command without a satellite name it will display a
- list of all the satellites known currently to the system.
-
- If you give a name then you can obtain tracking data of all the passes
- that start and finish 5 degrees below the horizon. As default it will
- give information for the next three hours for every five minute
- period.
-
- You can alter the number of hours and the step size, within certain
- limits.
-
- Each pass in a period is separated with a row of '-----' characters
-
- So for example:-
-
-
-
- SH/SAT AO-10
- SH/SAT FENGYUN1 12 2

\b] Show sun rise and set times
-
-
- Show the sun rise and set times for a (list of) prefixes or callsigns,
- together with the azimuth and elevation of the sun currently at those
- locations.
-
- If you don't specify any prefixes or callsigns, it will show the times
- for your QTH (assuming you have set it with either SET/LOCATION or
- SET/QRA), together with the current azimuth and elevation.
-
- If all else fails it will show the sunrise and set times for the node
- that you are connected to.
-
- For example:-
-
-
-
- SH/SUN
- SH/SUN G1TLH K9CW ZS
-
-

\b] Show the local time
-
-
- If no prefixes or callsigns are given then this command returns the
- local time and UTC as the computer has it right now. If you give some
- prefixes then it will show UTC and UTC + the local offset (not
- including DST) at the prefixes or callsigns that you specify.

- s\bsy\bys\bso\bop\bp Regain your privileges if you login remotely
-
-
- The system automatically reduces your privilege level to that of a
- normal user if you login in remotely. This command allows you to
- regain your normal privilege level. It uses the normal system: five
- numbers are returned that are indexes into the character array that is
- your assigned password (see SET/PASSWORD). The indexes start from
- zero.
-
- You are expected to return a string which contains the characters
- required in the correct order. You may intersperse those characters
- with others to obscure your reply for any watchers. For example (and
- these values are for explanation :-):
-
-
-
- password = 012345678901234567890123456789
- > sysop
- 22 10 15 17 3
-
-
-
- you type:-
-
-
-
- aa2bbbb0ccc5ddd7xxx3n
- or 2 0 5 7 3
- or 20573
-
-
-
- They will all match. If there is no password you will still be offered
- numbers but nothing will happen when you input a string. Any match is
- case sensitive.

- <callsign> via <node_call>
-
-
- Send a short message to any other station that is visible on the
- cluster system. You can send it to anyone you can see with a
- SHOW/CONFIGURATION command, they don't have to be connected locally.
-
- The second form of TALK is used when other cluster nodes are connected
- with restricted information. This usually means that they don't send
- the user information usually associated with logging on and off the
- cluster.
-
- If you know that G3JNB is likely to be present on GB7TLH, but you can
- only see GB7TLH in the SH/C list but with no users, then you would use
- the second form of the talk message.
-
- If you want to have a ragchew with someone you can leave the text
- message out and the system will go into 'Talk' mode. What this means
- is that a short message is sent to the recipient telling them that you
- are in a 'Talking' frame of mind and then you just type - everything
- you send will go to the station that you asked for.
-
- All the usual announcements, spots and so on will still come out on
- your terminal.
-
- If you want to do something (such as send a spot) you precede the
- normal command with a '/' character, eg:-
-
-
-
- /DX 14001 G1TLH What's a B class licensee doing on 20m CW?
- /HELP talk
-
-
-
- To leave talk mode type:
-
-
-
- /EX

- enter:-
-
-
-
- TYPE bulletins/arld051
-
-
-
- See also SHOW/FILES to see what fileareas are available and a list of
