PK-88 OPERATING MANUAL
ID
ID is an immediate command that sends a special identification packet. The ID command allows
you to send a final identification packet when you take your station off the air. Note that HID must
be set ON.
ID forces a final identification packet to be sent when a digipeater station is taken off the air. The
identification consists of an unnumbered I-Frame, with its data field containing your MYALIAS (if
any) and your MYCALL station identification and the word 'digipeater.'
The ID identification packet is sent only if the digipeater has transmitted since the last auto-
matic identification.
The ID identification packet is addressed to 'ID.'
Your station identification is the call sign you set with the MYCALL command, with your
MYALIAS, your main call sign and the word 'digipeater' appended. The following example is
shown as seen with and without a MYALIAS, with MONITOR set to 6.
