PK-232 OPERATING MANUAL Pactor OPERATION
11.9.8.6 L (LIST[mine])
The "L" command shows the remote user only a list of the messages he or
she may read as described in chapter 5. The "LM” command lists only
those messages addressed to the user.
11.9.8.7 R n (READ n [mine])
The "R n" command lets the remote user read any of the message numbers
displayed in the LIST command. The command operates as described in
chapter 5 except that the column headers are not displayed.
11.9.8.8 S callsign (SEND callsignl
Either a <CTRL-Z> or the "/EX" command must be used to end all Pactor
MailDrop messages. After the "/EX” or <CTRL-Z> has been detected, the
MailDrop will confirm that the message has been sent by returning the
message "FILED MSG n” to the remote user. An example of sending a
message is shown below:
WX7BBB DE WX7AAA (A,B,H,J,K,L,R,S,V,?) > (MailDrop prompt)
a wx2zzz @ wx2yyy <CTRL-Z> (user's SEND command)
Subject: (MailDrop Subject prompt)

b <CTRL-Z> (User disconnects)
11.9.8.9 V (VERSIONI.(Remote only command)
The "V" command causes the PK-232 to send the sign-on message and firmware
date to the remote user only.
11.9.8.10 ? (HELP) (Remote only command)
The "?" command sends the distant station a HELP list of all available
MailDrop commands shown above under the "H" command. Both the "?" and
the “H” cause this same file to be sent to the remote user.
11.10 Pactor and Packet MailDrop Operation
Messages left in the MailDrop in Pactor, AMTOR or Packet may be
accessed in any MailDrop mode. You, the SYSOP, will have to change
modes (and possibly bands or radio ports) to allow users access to your
messages from the other modes.
You may want to customize the Pactor MailDrop prompt (MDPROMPT) or
compose a message to ALL that tells remote users about your system.
Finally, remember to turn TMAIL ON and enter the Pactor mode of the PK-
232 to start the Pactor MailDrop.
