HINTS ON USING THE RADIO MODS DATABASE
1. DONT use dashes in the model number when requesting a file.
2. Send FILE requests to REQFIL at the NEAREST AVAILABLE SERVER (see list
of mods file servers in an accompanying bulletin)
for example:
if KJ6FY BBS IN BENICIA, CA is your nearest server, send:
SP REQFIL @ KJ6FY.#NOCAL.CA.USA.NA
Message subject: DD TS430S
This will return a file on the TS430S if it is in the database.
3. Many radios have several mods on file. In an effort to keep the file
size down to 2k or less, I have split these into a primary file and
several sub files. Subfiles have a number for a file extension.
Example: IC02AT.1
Check the file directory to see if there are more mods on file for the
radio in which you are interested.
4. If you are sending mods to the database, please limit file sizes to 2K
or less even if you have to split files. Also, only send one mod per
file.
5. Hardcopy mods will no longer be available from me due to time constraints.
If you have a hardcopy mod that you would like to share, please send me
your name and address and I will put a note in the database for interested
parties to contact you directly.
6. I need help in identifying duplicate mods and other problems with the
database. If you are aware of any, please let me know.
7. IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE YOU SEND THE MESSAGE USING "SP" AND NOT "SB".
ALSO BE SURE THE MESSAGE IS TO "REQFIL".
8. Files ending with .IDX are index files. filenames in the .idx files
show the filename extension for that particular mod. for example,
if the TS440S.IDX index file shows "1. crossband repeat", the filename
for the crossband repeat mod is in file TS440S.1. If the index shows
"0. extended freq", that mod would be in the file called TS440S (note
no file extension).
9. If you know of a mod which is not in the database, please send it to
KJ6FY @ KJ6FY.
Thanks to all of you that have sent in mods. Please send your comments
or questions to Ross Sagun, KJ6FY @ KJ6FY.#NOCAL.CA.USA.NA (database
coordinator).
