-
- Remote qsy option added on this release.It is very useful on fwd,
- where the traffic causes a lot of qrm in our packet qrgs.
- This procedure is almost like servers ,but the bbs doesn't
- need any address.It makes the job by decoding the 'Q' cmd.
-
- BBS reads all the necessary informations about qsy operation
- from a file.The full path to this file must be declared in
- our cnf file. I have named this file as QSY.TXT ,but it can be any
- filename.
-
- Users have to send 'Qx' cmd to access qsy,where x is the job number to do.
-
- QSY cmds:
-
- Q? : List of available qrgs to qsy.
- Q# : Qsy on #.
-
-
- Let's see the steps that bbs follows ,when someone issues qsy.
-
- 1.Checks if the station has the privilege to do such thing.
- 2.Executes an external program which controls our CAT rig.
- 3.Sends a synchronization frame to tune.
-
- QSY file has 3 topics.
-
- 1.Calls that have the privilege.
- 2.Programs to execute in any choice.
- 3.Descriptions and infos abt qsy qrgs.
-
-
- QSY file description:
-
- SV7QI IN3TUR PA3AIR SV7AIZ EOL {Privilege stations.You may have
- I0IEX 5B4TX EOL {more than one line.Each line ends
- --- {with the EOL sign.

- 3 14.107.00 MHz
- 4 14.109.00 MHz
- 5 14.111.00 MHz
- 6 14.113.00 MHz
- 7 14.115.00 MHz

-
- When someone sends a Q1 cmd,bbs will execute the first description and
- it will qsy on 14.105.19 Mhz.
-
- We have declared the com ports of the qrgs here,because we can't qsy
- when there are different connections on the bbs.
- If we wish to avoid this,we have to put a letter as a port number.
- The thought was that the whole procedure can be used in any other
- way.You may wish for instance,to support remote rotator operation,
- or to execute any other useful program.It's up to u.
- The important is that the first 3 columns are standard.
- If we wish connection check,put real port numbers.If we dont,
- put letters(A,B,C,D.....).
-
- I have wrote a program to control my rig and that is what i use
- to qsy here.My rig is a FT-757GX and this program has to do with its
- cmds.If you have any other CAT rig you have to make your own program.
- I use my 3d serial port to communicate with 757.It is com3 but its
- logical number is actually 2.I haven't a quadruple serial card.I have
- just fit com3 with some tricks.
-
- Some useful infos about qsy program and a simple interface:
-
- Yaesu FT-757 GX autoqsy routine,for bbs use.(c)12/12/89-SV7AIZ
-
- It is very simple to operate.The program needs 4 parameters.
-
- Example :
-
- At the dos prompt or during dos cmds execution from the fwd file,
- execute:
-
- QSY 2 4800 01410500 10
