11 July 1993
This is a weekly unofficial bulletin of news and views from ZL
amateurs. It does not represent any official viewpoint, and all
opinions are those of the contributor.
Baycom Manual Assistance
------------------------ from ZL3CS.
'A Little Baycom Software Guide' appeared on the PBBS recently.
You cannot really believe the title. It is not a ''little'' guide.
It is a large one with over 20 pages of most useful assistance to
those who have found the literal english translation of the
original text, a trifle difficult to follow in places. This guide
to baycom explains the operational parameters clearly, and in
simple terms, easy to follow and understand.
It was most pleasing to see the files appear on the local BBS,
timed to perfection, coinciding with the July Break-In articles.
Ulrich, ZL1DDL is to be congratulated for producing this
beautifully prepared group of files of information about Baycom, in
response to many requests. In addition to the operational
parameters, there are sections on standard texts, file transfers,
remote control and password access, and monitor functions. In a
note to all the PBBS sysops, ulrich indicates that he would
appreciate their putting these information files into their baycom
file directories. Ulrich intends to update them, when necessary.
In no way, does the writer intend, or imply, any criticism
whatsoever of the original baycom manual translation.

Mouse Fuzz Balls
---------------- from ZL1ACS
It is said that your mouse maybe suffering from fuzz balls, if
it is behaving erratically. The operation called for requires
flipping him upside down and removing the retaining ring that holds
the ball in place.
The surgery is to remove the ball and clean it with soap and
water, then let it dry thoroughly. Check inside the mouse for
fuzz balls or other foreign matter and clean it out, but don't use
water or other liquids on his insides, or the poor thing will turn
his toes up.

ZL1AMW Travels
-------------- From ZL1AMW
Last week's news was prepared in some what of a rush, and my
apologies to those who read this on the Packet BBS, as I managed to
slip up with the upload to the BBS, until Thursday. I guess my
excuse must be lack of practice, as I have again been out of the
country for a few weeks, working in California. Thanks once again
to Douglas, ZL1AVY and Guthrie, ZL3CS for once more jumping
willingly into the breach while I was struggling in the more
temperate climates (around 38 degrees most days!), thinking of all
those in the ZL winter, thank goodness for the standard air
conditioning in factories and hotels in that area, although the

effect on the body while moving from one building to another are
extreme.
Unfortunately I was away for NZART Conference, but was pleased to
hear news of how successful it was, once again a great forum for
the continued advancement of our hobby.
My 40 metre RTTY Selcal was left on-air again, with some attention
from local supporters, but managed to knot itself up for about a
week, all back again on 27 June. Anyone interested in this device
can call it up on 7045KHz (mark tone frequency, dial 7047.13 for
most modems), and call ZL1AMW in baudot at 75 baud.
That concludes the Data News for this week, this sheet is
Prepared at the shack of ZL1AMW from contributions sent by post,
RTTY and packet. Text is also obtained from packet BBS stations,
and Selcals on 7045/3545khz.
This news is transmitted weekly on Sunday mornings at 0930hrs
(local) and repeated at 1900hrs. Both transmissions are on 7045khz.
It is first sent in Baudot at 75 baud, then repeated in AMTOR mode
B (FEC) on both occasions.
73 to all from Alan, ZL1AMW, 20 Lorne St., Hamilton.
