ARC FAQ’s  AR-Cluster User Manual

 

 

Q: Can I put a test spot into the system without it being echoed to other users and nodes?

A: Yes, just spot the callsign TE1ST and it will not be propagated throughout the network.

 

Q: How can I execute a specific set of commands when logging into the cluster?

A: You need to set up a USER/PROFILE.  The USER/PROFILE commands will be executed upon each login.

 

Q: How can I limit the coverage of spots being sent to my station?

A: See the Filter section for details on setting user filters.

 

Q:  Do the commands have to be in the same case as listed in the manual?

A:  No, they can be in upper or lower case.

 

Q:  When using DX-Telnet with AR-Cluster, Announcements do not show up in the DX-Telnet Announcements Window?

A:  The DX-Telnet program needs a Beep character at the end of each line.  Do a Set/Beep on the node and DX-Telnet will work.
