Epson MFJ-1278B manual Yourcall CQ, Yourcall Hiscall

MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE ADVANCED OPERATION

4.Rapidly type a string of 15 to 20 carriage returns <CR>. This will cause the MFJ- 1278B to send a continuous string of unconnected information (UI) frames. Since this will be a relatively long burst of packet transmission, the potential receiving station will have plenty of time to tune your signal in. To a receiving station this will appear on his screen as:

YOURCALL > CQ:

YOURCALL > CQ:

YOURCALL > CQ:

YOURCALL > CQ:

YOURCALL > CQ:

.

.

.

.

One for each carriage return you typed.

Even a station which has no tuning indicator can eventually get you tuned in using this type of signal as he can tune around and watch his screen to see where printing is effective.

If you are meeting a friend on a schedule, you just set the "UNProto" field to "HISCALL" and do the same thing. When your friend finds you, this will appear on his screen as:

YOURCALL > HISCALL:

YOURCALL > HISCALL:

YOURCALL > HISCALL:

.

.

For as many <CR>s as you typed. Your friend will have little trouble finding you and tuning you in for the QSO.
