AXDELAY n
default 0
The value of ―n‖ is the number of 10 millisecond intervals to wait, in addition to
TXDELAY, after keying the transmitter before data is sent. This delay can be helpful
when operating packet through a standard ―voice‖ repeater, or when using an external
linear amplifier which requires extra key-up time. Repeaters using slow mechanical
relays, split-sites, or both require some amount of time to get RF on the air.

AXHANG n
default 0
Each increment specifies 10 millisecond intervals. This value may be used to improve
channel utilization when audio repeaters with a hang time greater than 10 ms are used.
If the repeater squelch tail is long, it is not necessary to wait for AXDELAY after keying
the transmitter if the repeater is still transmitting. If the TNC has heard a packet within
the AXHANG period, it will not add AXDELAY to the key-up time.

BEACON [EVERY | AFTER] n
default Every 0
The value entered for ―n‖ is the number of minutes (i.e., one-minute intervals) to use
with the beacon command.
A value of 0 turns the beacon OFF. Setting a value greater than 0 activates the beacon
under the conditions specified. If the optional keyword Every is used, a beacon packet
will be sent every n minutes. If set to After, a beacon packet will be sent ONCE after the
specified interval with no channel activity.
The beacon frame consists of the text specified by BTEXT in a packet addressed to
―BEACON‖. Beacon messages will be digipeated via any addresses specified in the
UNPROTO command.
