When it comes time to disconnect, you do so in the standard AX.25 manner. To
disconnect the link described above, type <Ctrl+C>, obtain the cmd: prompt on
your TNC, and issue the disconnect command:
cmd: D
***DISCONNECTED
You’ll get the usual disconnect message from your TNC, as noted. If however,
your distant partner, in this case NØKN, disconnects the link, you’ll see the fol-
lowing (due to the “STAY” in “C NØAPJ STAY” in the example earlier):
###DISCONNECTED BY NØAPJ AT NODE KC
ENTER COMMAND B,C,J,N,X, or Help ?
Frequently when connecting to a distant city, you may wish to talk to more than
one station. Perhaps when you connected, you got a message saying “I’m not
here right now, please leave a message in my PBBS”. By using the “S(tay)”
option when telling a KA-Node to connect to another station, the KA-Node will
not disconnect from you if it receives a disconnect from the distant station. In-
stead, you will receive a message from the KA-Node saying ###DISCON-
NECTED BY (call) AT NODE (MYNODE). In other words, if you connected
from Lawrence, Kansas to a KA-Node in Lincoln, Nebraska, and then told that
KA-Node to connect to someone using the command “C call Stay”. Then if that
station sent you the above message and disconnected, you would remain con-
nected to the KA-Node in Lincoln! This would allow you to issue a connect di-
rectly to his BBS, without having to re-establish the entire path.
In multiple KA-Node paths, each time you say B(ye) to the distant KA-Node,
this will return you to the next previous KA-Node which had been told to “Stay”
in the chain of KA-Nodes. From that point, you could build a path in a different
direction. One point to note here is that if you use the KA-Node to connect to a
BBS (WØRLI or WA7MBL for instance), and use the STAY option, then say
B(ye) to the BBS, you would remain connected to the KA-Node closest to the
BBS. If you issue the connect without the STAY option, any disconnect from ei-
ther end will cause the entire link to disconnect.
