Structure of user information
Information in the Envoy Transceiver is stored like blocks in a building.
Basic blocks are populated with information first, then these blocks,
along with different blocks, are assembled into larger blocks.
Ultimately, one of the top-level blocks is used to make a call.
The most basic block is a frequency. A frequency is combined with a
mode, say USB or LSB, and a name to become a channel. Channels may
be grouped into scan tables. Scan tables may be allocated to HF
networks. An HF network defines the call system by which a call is
made and the self address of the transceiver.
Further blocks may be assembled for the convenience of the user. A
contact stores information on the typical calls that can be made to a
person or organisation. Each call is defined by the HF network and the
call type.
How these blocks are assembled is up to the system administrator.
There is, of course, finer detail that needs to be included, however, the
basic structure of information in the transceiver is shown in
Figure 44.
