LIte ON|OFF/ON|OFF Default: OFF/OFF
Mode: Packet Host: LI
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - The PK-900 will attempt to use the HF Packet Lite extensions.
OFF - The PK-900 uses AX.25 Level 2 Version 1.0 or 2.0 protocol.
________________________________________________________________________________
Enables AEA's Packet Lite HF extensions to the AX.25 packet protocol.
A Packet Lite connection is established only if both stations have LITE ON.
As with the AX25L2V2 command, LITE may not be changed if the TNC is in a
connected state. Setting LITE ON overrides the AX25L2V2 setting, and the unit
acts as if AX25L2V2 were ON.
See the section of the Packet Chapter (Chapter 4) regarding Packet Lite
operation and restrictions.

Lock Immediate Command
Mode: Morse/Baudot/AMTOR/FAX Host: LO
________________________________________________________________________________
AMTOR and Baudot:
LOCK is an immediate command used to force a LETTERS shift in the received data.
This can be helpful if noise has garbled the LTRS character causing FIGURES to
be displayed.
FAX:
This is a manual start command for FAX. Normally the transmitting station
starts a FAX image with sync pulses so that the receiver automatically lines up
with the edge of the paper. If you tune in a signal too late, or there is so
much noise that the sync pulses are not detected, you can start reception
manually with the LOCK command. If you issue a LOCK to the PK-900, you will
probably need to use the JUSTIFY command to properly align the image.
Morse:
LOCK is an immediate command that instructs the PK-900 to lock its timing to
the current measured speed of a Morse signal. The LOCK command may improve the
PK-900's ability to decode CW signals in the presence of high noise levels.

MAildrop ON|OFF Default: OFF
Mode: Packet Host: MV
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - The PK-900 operates as a personal packet BBS or MailDrop.
OFF - The PK-900 only operates as a normal AX.25 Level 2 TNC (default).
________________________________________________________________________________
The PK-900's MailDrop is a personal mailbox that uses a subset of the
W0RLI/WA7MBL PBBS commands. When MailDrop is ON, other stations can connect to
your PK-900, leave messages for you or read messages from you.
See the 3RDPARTY, MDCHECK, MDPROMPT, MDMON, MTEXT, MMSG and MYMAIL commands.
