MIRに接続してHelpコマンドを使べきではありません。他の局の利用の邪魔をするだけです。
**** R0MIR-1に同時にコネクトできるのは1局だけです****
5. 準備を怠りなく
もしMIRの乗組員にメッセージを送りたいのなら、まずメッセージをファイルの形でいつでも送信できるように用意してください。例えば地上局がKPC-9612を使っているのであれば、そのメールボックスに入り SP R0MIR@MIR としてサブジェクトと本文を書き込みます。MIRが視野に入り、メールボックスが使われていないことを確かめてからメッセージを転送します。地上局のTNCはMIRのTNCと通信し転送を行います。これは他よりずっと速い方法です。3.7Kバイトの情報を1分足らず転送することができます。これには接続や切断の時間も含んでいます。他の多くのTNCも同様な機能を持っていますからマニュアルを読んでみてください。
---------------
ヒント:
接続を試みる前に、現在接続している局に対してR0MIR-1がディスコネクトフレームを送るのを待って、接続を試みてください。
多くのTNCはMCOM ONコマンドですべてのフレームヘッダー表示します。TNCのマニュアルのMCOM ONの項目を読んでみてください。
例: R0MIR-1>WA6LIE [06/21/98 01:00:24]: <<rr2>>: (とTNCが表示する) R0MIR-1>W6XXX [06/21/98 01:00:30]: <<DM>>: (この局が混信を与えている) R0MIR-1>K6XXX [06/21/98 01:00:34]: <<DM>>: (この局も混信を与えている)
なぜでしょうか?R0MIR-1がWA6LIEとの交信を終えておらず、まだ接続しているからです。
<<D>> はR0MIR-1からのディスコネクトの要求です。(コネクトしている局に対してのみの)次の場合、もしコネクトしている局が<<D>>リクエストを送ったのであれば、あなたはR0MIR-1に接続できるかもしれません。
R0MIR-1>WA6LIE [06/21/98 01:00:45]: <<D>>: (NOW R0MIR-1 は WA6LIEとの交信を完了した)
よく見かける<<DM>>はある局に送られた "切断"です。これは何の役にも立ちません。すでにコネクトしているユーザーがいるにもかかわらず他の局がR0MIR-1に接続を試みた時に見られるものです。これはすでにコネクトしている通信に対して混信を与え、メールの読み書きを失敗させるだけです。
例:
If I were on a high speed highway, and STOPPED in the middle of the
road to see where I was at, I would become a traffic hazzard. Others
would honk their horns and give obscene gestures. Someone else will
rearend me, and cause a major accident and close down the road.
IF I had been aware of where I was at, and where I was going, there
would be no incident, and everything would FLOW NORMALLY!
Bottom line: LOOK,THINK and LISTEN FIRST!
Don't try to send a message to your buddy down the street to MIR's
PERSONAL Mailbox. It will NOT allow 3rd party messages. If you try,
you will get a response - MESSAGES MUST BE ADDRESSED TO THIS STATION.
Please Don't connect to your buddies MAILBOX OR HOME STATION Via
the MIR digipeater! This is like you and your buddy going down the
highway at the same speed chit-chatting - IMPEEDING TRAFFIC!
** IF you can run your radio squelch open (using CD SOFTWARE KPC only),
you will increase your odds of decoding the signal.
Consult your Kantronics manual for more information.

6. BE COURTEOUS
See #5 above, and apply here.
Again, please don't try connecting to R0MIR-1 when someone else is already
connected! You will get a R0MIR-1 **BUSY. When you get this, don't
keep trying while others are connected. This just messes up the other
station, and it is interference and will just take that much LONGER
for the user to finish before he/she disconnects. Would you like
others interfering with your connects to MIR? Look for the <<D>> frame
from R0MIR-1 to the connected station. Using MCOM ON will allow you
to see all these packets. Here is what MY KPC-9612 would show.
R0MIR-1>WA6LIE/1 [05/13/98 22:18:04]: <<D>>: After you see this, hopefully, the ground station has sent his/her disconnect to R0MIR-1, and it will be ready for the next connect. ----------------- R0MIR This is the callsign of MIR. This port has no value to working MIR except credit towards a QSL card. There is nobody at the keyboard. Note: Sometimes a connection to R0MIR will roll over to the mailbox. This is set by the sysop, if the crew sends their script file you will get a message: HELLO FROM MIR SPACE STATION ----------------- DIGIPEATING VIA R0MIR Using UI frames (unconnected informational) is very effecient. APRS uses this mode to send alot of information without having a formal connection to a station. To do this, you must set your Unproto path. In the command mode cmd: type U CQ Via R0MIR There are other variations that can be used like U CM96BX Via R0MIR. This shows my grid square via R0MIR. To use the unproto mode, you next have to get into the converse mode. The letter K <enter> works on KPC tncs, and may work on yours. If not, type CONVERSE. Now, EVERY line you type will be digipeated via MIR. Try something like, Hello from Scott in Aptos, Calif. wa6lie@juno.com R0MIR should have digipeated this, and if it does, you will see your line appear on the screen with an astrik after R0MIR(*) DO NOT use R0MIR for formal connects to other stations! Use the digipeater as described above to send your short messages. --------------- QSL REQUESTS USA and WW except Europe: Dave Larsen - N6CO PO Box 311 Pine Grove, California 95665 USA Please include a SASE (Business Size Envelope) and two IRCs > for international.
