AMTOR
This command places the TNC in AMTOR Mode. Entering AMTOR xxxx[xxx], where xxxx[xx] is a
selcal, will place the TNC in AMTOR master mode, and the TNC will initiate a ARQ call. Entering
AMTOR without xxxx[xxx] will place the TNC in standby mode for reception of either ARQ or Mode
B (FEC or SELFEC) signals. You may initiate a Mode B (FEC) transmission by using the
Ctrl-C
direc-
tive followed by a letter
T
. ARQ signals received must contain the SELCAL you have entered in the
MYSEL4 or MYSEL7 commands to be decoded.

KAM
ASCII
This command sets the default ASCII baud rate used when entering ASCII mode with no baud rate
specified. This baud rate is also used if PMODE is set to ASCII. While in ASCII Mode pressing
Ctrl-C Ø
will set the baud rate to that specified by ASCBAUD. FCC rules currently limit the baud
rate at 300 when operating below 28 MHz.

KAM
ASCII
This command places the TNC in ASCII Mode. The parameter n sets the transceiver baud rate. For
example, use ASCII 150 if you wish to go on air at 150 baud. When the n parameter is omitted,
the value specified by ASCBAUD is selected. Commonly use standards are either 110 or 300.
Selecting any other value requires that the station you are trying to communicate with have similar
selection capability. FCC rules currently limit the baud rate at 300 when operating below 28 MHz.
