HOW TO USE THE RADIO MODIFICATIONS DATABASE
The Radio Mods Database is being maintained by several bbs's around the
country. You should send your mod file requests to the nearest available
bbs server. To find your nearest server, see the accompanying bulletin
which gives a list of mods servers.
The following format examples assume that KJ6FY bbs in Benicia, California
is your nearest server. If it is not, use the appropriate bbs callsign.
*******
To look for a mod, send the following:
SP REQFIL @ KJ6FY.#NOCAL.CA.USA
when asked for the subject title, enter: DD modelnumber
for example, for TS430S, enter
DD TS430S
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE YOU SEND THE MESSAGE USING "SP" AND NOT "SB".
ALSO BE SURE THE MESSAGE IS TO "REQFIL".
No message text required. DO NOT use dashes in the model number.
example: SP REQFIL @ KJ6FY.#NOCAL.CA.USA.NA
subject: dd TS430S
the above example will return information stored on the TS-430S.
Note: USE REQFIL (REQUEST FILE) TO GET A FILE. REQDIR IS NOT SUPPORTED DUE
TO THE SIZE OF THE DIRECTORY LISTING.
If you have more than one request, you can use the FILEX server if the
database server you are using supports it. (see server list)
USERS CAN NOW REQUEST MULTIPLE MOD FILES FROM THE RADIO MODS DATABASE WITH
JUST ONE MESSAGE IF THE SERVER THEY ARE USING SUPPORTS FILEX. KJ6FY IN
BENICIA, CA NOW SUPPORTS FILEX. SERVERS SUPPORTING FILEX ARE DENOTED IN
THE LIST OF SHADOW SERVERS WHICH I DISTRIBUTE REGULARLY.
SUPPOSE YOU WISH TO DOWNLOAD 3 MOD FILES, TS440S.IDX, TS440S.1 AND TS440S.2.
HERE IS WHAT YOU WOULD SEND:
SP FILEX @ KJ6FY.#NOCAL.CA.USA.NA (OR ANOTHER MODS SERVER SUPPORTING FILEX)
SUBJECT: leave blank
MESSAGE:
DD TS440S.IDX
DD TS440S.1
DD TS440S.2
(CONTROL-Z)
MOD FILES REQUESTED IN THIS MANNER WILL BE SENT TO YOU AS SEPARATE MESSAGES.
-------------------------
To get a listing of all mods in the system, check your local bbs or ask your
sysop. Attention sysops: Radio mod database directories and info bulletins
have a bid ending in .RMD if you wish to capture and file them.
-------------------------
To upload a message containing information on a mod:
SP KJ6FY @ KJ6FY.#NOCAL.CA.USA.NA
SUBJECT: (MODEL NUMBER..for example, TS430S)
Message text will be placed into the database.
-------------------------
DISCLAIMER:
I ASSUME NO LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF THE APPLICATION OR USE OF ANY CIRCUIT
OR INFORMATION DESCRIBED HEREIN OR WITHIN THE RADIO MODS DATABASE NOR IS ANY
RESPONSIBILITY ASSUMED FOR INNACURACIES. THESE MODS ARE A COMPILATION OF
MOD BULLETINS SEEN AT THIS BBS AND THEIR SOURCES HAVE NOT BEEN VERIFIED.
PERFORM THESE MODS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
