LOCATION
~~~~~~~~
Your location information is used in the beacon
message and mail signature.
The beacon message is a short bit of text that your
station transmits periodically to let other stations
know where you are and that you are switched on should
they wish to contact you.
The mail signature is a short piece of text that is
appended to your mail messages automatically. The
signature when produced by this program will include
details of your location, IP address, and mail
information but you may wish to "tart" it up a bit
(not too much as it wastes air time). Your signature
is found in the PCELM\<callsign>.SIG directory, off
your NOS installation path. PLEASE REMEMBER that
although those graphics look great on your computer,
they may look like a mess of spaghetti on the guys
screen down the road because he's using an Apple Mac
or an Amiga, so keep it simple!!!
You should keep the location information as concise
as possible. For example;
Northaw, Hertfordshire, UK
is where I live. Northaw is a village in
Hertfordshire in the United Kingdom. Abbreviations
are a good idea if they are standard and recognised
WORLD WIDE.
