This is the list of user commands currently available within the DX Spider DX Cluster system.
+ It is automatically generated from the system help files.
+
+
+- ANNOUNCE <text> Send an announcement to LOCAL users only
+
+<text> is the text of the announcement you wish to broadcast
+
+
+ - ANNOUNCE FULL <text> Send an announcement cluster wide
+
+This will send your announcement cluster wide
+
+
+ - APROPOS <string> Search help database for <string>
+
+Search the help database for <string> (it isn't case sensitive), and print
+ the names of all the commands that may be relevant.
+
+
+ - BYE Exit from the cluster
+
+This will disconnect you from the cluster
+
+
+ - DBAVAIL Show a list of all the Databases in the system
+
+Title says it all really, this command lists all the databases defined
+ in the system. It is also aliased to SHOW/COMMAND.
+
+
+ - DBSHOW <dbname> <key> 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
+
+
+
+ - DIRECTORY List messages
+
+List the messages in the messages directory.
+
+
+If there is a 'p' one space after the message number then it is a
+ personal message. If there is a '-' between the message number and the
+ 'p' then this indicates that the message has been read.

+ cluster. See SHOW/BANDS for more information.
+
+
+ - HELP The HELP Command
+
+HELP is available for a number of commands. The syntax is:-
+
+
+
+ HELP <cmd>
+
+
+
+Where <cmd> is the name of the command you want help on.
+
+
+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.
+
+
+ - KILL <msgno> [<msgno> ...] Remove or erase a message from the system

+
+
+ - SEND <call> [<call> ...] Send a message to one or more callsigns
+
+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

+
+ - SET/ADDRESS <your address> Record your postal address
+
+
+
+ - SET/ANNOUNCE Allow announce messages to come out on your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SET/BEEP Add a beep to DX and other messages on your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SET/DX Allow DX messages to come out on your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SET/HERE Tell the system you are present at your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SET/HOMENODE <node> Set your normal cluster callsign
+
+Tell the cluster system where you normally connect to. Any Messages sent
+ to you will normally find their way there should you not be connected.
+ eg:-
+
+ SET/HOMENODE gb7djk
+
+
+
+ - SET/LANGUAGE <lang> Set the language you want to use
+
+You can select the language that you want the cluster to use. Currently
+ the languages available are en (english) and nl (dutch).
+
+
+ - SET/LOCATION <lat & long> Set your latitude and longitude
+
+In order to get accurate headings and such like you must tell the system
+ what your latitude and longitude is. If you have not yet done a SET/QRA
+ then this command will set your QRA locator for you. For example:-
+
+ SET/LOCATION 52 22 N 0 57 E
+
+
+
+ - SET/NAME <your name> Set your name
+
+Tell the system what your name is eg:-
+
+ SET/NAME Dirk
+
+
+
+ - SET/PAGE <lines per page> Set the lines per page
+
+Tell the system how many lines you wish on a page when the number of line
+ of output from a command is more than this. The default is 20. Setting it
+ explicitly to 0 will disable paging.
+
+ SET/PAGE 30
+ SET/PAGE 0
+
+
+
+ - SET/QRA <locator> Set your QRA locator
+
+Tell the system what your QRA (or Maidenhead) locator is. If you have not
+ done a SET/LOCATION then your latitude and longitude will be set roughly
+ correctly (assuming your locator is correct ;-). For example:-
+
+ SET/QRA JO02LQ
+
+
+
+ - SET/QTH <your qth> Set your QTH
+
+Tell the system where you are. For example:-
+
+ SET/QTH East Dereham, Norfolk
+
+
+
+ - SET/TALK Allow TALK messages to come out on your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SET/WWV Allow WWV messages to come out on your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SET/WX Allow WX messages to come out on your terminal
+
+
+
+ - SHOW/DX Interrogate the spot database
+
+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 commands 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
+ SH/DX rf1p qsl
+ SH/DX iota
+ SH/DX iota eu-064
+ SH/DX qra jn86
+
+
+
+ - SHOW/DXCC <prefix> Interrogate the spot database by country
+
+This command takes the <prefix> (which can be a full or partial
+ callsign if desired), looks up which internal country number it is
+ and then displays all the spots as per SH/DX for that country.
+
+
+The options for SHOW/DX also apply to this command.
+ e.g.
+
+
+
+ SH/DXCC G
+ SH/DXCC W on 20m info iota
+
+
+
+ - SHOW/FILES [<filearea> [<string>]] List the contents of a filearea
+
+SHOW/FILES on its own will show you a list of the various fileareas
+ available on the system. To see the contents of a particular file
+ area 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:-
+
+ SH/FILES bulletins arld*
+
+
+
+See also TYPE - to see the contents of a file.
+
+
+ - SHOW/MUF <prefix> [<hours>][long] Show the likely propagation to a 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.
+
+
+ - SHOW/PREFIX <callsign> Interrogate the prefix database
+
+This command takes the <callsign> (which can be a full or partial
+ callsign or a prefix), looks up which internal country number
+ it is and then displays all the relevant prefixes for that country
+ together with the internal country no, the CQ and ITU regions.
+
+
+See also SHOW/DXCC
+
+
+ - SHOW/SUN [<callsign>|<prefix>] Display sunrise and sunset times
+
+Show the sunrise and sunset times for a callsign (if it is known to the
+ cluster), a prefix or, if nothing is specified, at your QTH (if you have
+ remembered to set your location using SET/LOCATION or SET/QRA). If all else
+ fails it will show the sunrise and set times for the node that you are
+ connected to.
+
+
+You can enter more than one prefix or callsign:-
+
+
+
+ SH/SUN G1TLH G8TIC W9
+
+
+
+ - SHOW/WWV Show last 10 WWV broadcasts
+
+Display the most recent WWV information that has been received by the system
+
+
+ - SHOW/WWV <n> Show last <n> WWV broadcasts
+
+Display the most recent WWV information that has been received by the system
+
+
+ - SYSOP 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.
+
+
+ - TALK <call> > <node> <text> Send a text message to another station via a node
+
+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.
+
+
+ - TALK <call> <text> Send a text message to another station

+ second form of the talk message.
+
+
+ - TYPE <filearea>/<name> Look at the contents of a file in one of the fileareas
+
+Type out the contents of a file in a filearea. So, for example, in
+ filearea 'bulletins' you want to look at file 'arld051' you would
+ enter:-
+
+ TYPE bulletins/arld051
+
+
+
+See also SHOW/FILES to see what fileareas are available and a
+ list of content.
