The “Mail” indicator on the front panel of your TNC blinks to alert you to
unread mail addressed to you (i.e., to the callsigns of MYCALL or MYPBBS).
See the TNC command PBLIST for how you can add other callsigns to the list of
callsigns that are to be included as “mine.” The PBLIST is also used with the
PBPERSON command and the following PBBS commands: LMINE, KMINE,
and RMINE. Note that the mail-status indicator on the front panel of the TNC is
turned ON (without blinking) when someone is connected to your PBBS.
PBBS Commands
The commands available to users connecting to your Kantronics TNC PBBS (and
you connecting directly) are as follows:
B(ye)
This command is entered by the PBBS user to disconnect from the PBBS.
E(dit) n [BPTYNFH] [>tocall] [<fromcall] [@BBS] “old”
“new”
This command is available only to the system operator (SYSOP) or to a user at
the keyboard of a computer connected directly to the TNC (i.e., not to a remote
connection, except for the SYSOP). For an explanation of this command, see the
section below on “Editing Message Headers.”
H(elp)
Displays a HELP menu.
J(heard)
Displays a list of stations recently heard by the TNC. The list will include a date
and time stamp indicating when each station was heard.
J(heard) S(hort)
This command is similar to the J(heard) command above, but only displays the
callsigns of the stations heard.
