|
|
<P><B>Q.</B>These commands seem very long! Can I shorten them?
|
|
<P><B>A.</B>Of course you can and the usual abbreviations work. If you
|
|
are unsure, try it.
|
|
<P><B>Q.</B>I am not sure if this command is correct. Can I cause any
|
|
harm if I try it?
|
|
<P><B>A.</B>Do not be afraid to try a command to see if it will work,
|
|
at the worst you will get an error message. If you require any
|
|
help on a command, just type help followed by the command you
|
|
want help on. Look at the "DXSpider Command Reference" section to see
|
|
what help can be found.
|
|
<P><B>Q.</B>How should I use the announce command?
|
|
<P><B>A.</B>With respect. Use the command by all means, but please
|
|
only use the "full" extension if absolutely necessary. It can
|
|
create a LOT of messages passing between clusters.
|
|
<P><B>Q.</B>I like to be working in the shack while logged into the
|
|
cluster but I can't be looking at the screen all the time. How
|
|
can I be alerted when anything happens?
|
|
<P><B>A.</B>Use the <B>SET/BEEP</B> command. You can find information
|
|
on this in the "DXSpider Command Reference" section.
|
|
<P><B>Q.</B>I got disconnected from the cluster and now I can't log
|
|
back in again. What is wrong?
|
|
<P><B>A.</B>Probably the cluster thinks you are still logged on and
|
|
will not let you reconnect using the same call to prevent loops.
|
|
Try logging on again adding an ssid to your callsign as DXSpider
|
|
treats G0YLM and G0YLM-1 as different users.
|
|
<P><B>Q.</B>How do I know if I have got the latest version of this
|
|
user manual?
|
|
<P><B>A.</B>The latest and greatest will always be on the Website. It will
|
|
also be included with every release of DXSpider. As always, if unsure,
|
|
ask your sysop what version number is the latest.
