Parameters:
ON
-
The PK-88 sends HDLC identification as a digipeater.
OFF -
The PK-88 does not send HDLC identification.
The HID command activates or disables the PK-88's automatic periodic transmission of
identification packets when operating as a digipeater. This identification consists of
an unsequenced I-frame with your station identification (MYCALL) and MYALIAS in the
data field.
Set HID ON to force the PK-88 to send an ID packet every 9.5 minutes while used
as a digipeater.
Set HID OFF to stop the PK-88 from sending any ID packets.
The HID identification packet is addressed to "ID".
Your station identification is the call sign set with the MYCALL command, with
'digipeater' appended.
For example, you've set MYCALL to WX1AAA-8 and HID is ON. The resulting automatic
identification transmission looks like:
WX1AAA-8>ID
(MYALIAS), WX1AAA digipeater
NOTE:
You cannot change the 9.5-minute automatic interval timing.
