COMMAND SUMMARY

WHY
not ON|OFF
Default: OFF
Mode: Packet
Host: WN
Parameters:
ON -
The PK-232 generates a reason why received packets were not displayed.
OFF - This function is disabled.
During packet operation, the PK-232 may receive many packets that are not displayed. Turning
WHYNOT on will cause the PK-232 to display a message explaining the reason the received packet
was not displayed to the screen. The messages and their meanings are shown below:
PASSALL:
The received packet frame had errors, and PASSALL was off, preventing the
packet from being displayed to the screen.
DCD Threshold:
The Threshold control was set too far counter clockwise. The DCO LED was
off when the packet was received.
MONITOR:
The MONITOR value was set too low to receive this frame.
MCON:
MCON was set too low to receive this type of frame.
MPROTO:
MPROTO was set to off, and the received packet was probably a NET/ROM or
TCP/IP frame.
MFROM/MTO:
The frame was blocked by the MFROM or MTO command.
MBX:
The call sign of the sending station does not match the call sign setting in
the MBX command.
MBX Sequence:
The frame was received out of sequence, probably a retry.
Frame too long:
Incoming packet frame longer than 330 bytes. Probably a non-AX.25 frame.
Frame too short:
Incoming packet frame shorter than 15 bytes. Only seen if PASSALL ON.
Probably noise.
RX overrun:
Another HDLC byte was received before we could read the previous one out
of the HDLC chip.
W
ideshft ON|OFF
Default: OFF
Mode: Baudot/ASCII RTTY/AMTOR/Pactor Host: WI
Parameters:
ON -
RTTY tones are shifted 1000 Hz.
OFF - RTTY tones are shifted 200 Hz (emulates 170-Hz shift).
The WIDESHFT command permits the use of the PK-232 on VHF or HF with either wide (1000 Hz)
or narrow (200 Hz) shifts. Many amateur radio VHF and HF RTTY operators use 170 Hz shift. The
PK-232's 200 Hz shift is well within the filter tolerances of any RTTY demodulator in general serv-
ice. MARS stations will find WIDESHFT generally compatible with MARS and commercial 850 Hz
shift RTTY operations.
