PK-88 OPERATING MANUAL
4.9.1
The MFROM Command
MFROM uses arguments to determine how the PK-88 monitors packet channels and
displays information - which stations' packets will be displayed and which
stations' packets will be masked or hidden.
MFROM is set to ALL when you start the PK-88 for the first time.
•
Type MFROM to display the ALL/NONE/YES list/NO list status of call signs
of stations from whom packets will or will not be displayed. You can use
the abbreviated command form or mnemonic:
•
To stop display of all packets:
type 'MFROM NONE' and 'MTO NONE'
This has the same effect as setting MONITOR to zero (0).
•
To display packets only from one or more specific stations:
type 'MFROM YES' (followed by a list of calls signs).
Only packets from stations whose call signs are listed after YES will be
displayed . MTO should be NONE.
•
To hide or mask packets only from one or more specific stations:
type 'MFROM NO' (followed by a list of call signs).
Only packets from stations whose call signs are listed after NO
will not be displayed.
You can add optional SSIDs specified as '-n' after the call sign. If MFROM is
set to NO WX1AAA or YES WX1AAA any combination of WX1AAA WX1AAA-1, WXlAAA-15
will be matched and processed.
If MFROM is set to YES WX1AAA-1 or NO WX1AAA-1, then
and be processed.
When MFROM and MTO contain different types of arguments, to avoid any possible
conflict, the arguments take the following priority:
ALL, NO-list, YES-list, NONE
Clear the MFROM field by typing '%,' '&,' or 'OFF' as the argument.
