Q.These commands seem very long! Can I shorten them?
-A.Of course you can and the usual abbreviations work. If you -are unsure, try it.
-Q.I am not sure if this command is correct. Can I cause any -harm if I try it?
-A.Do not be afraid to try a command to see if it will work, -at the worst you will get an error message. If you require any -help on a command, just type help followed by the command you -want help on. Look at the "DXSpider Command Reference" section to see -what help can be found.
-Q.How should I use the announce command?
-A.With respect. Use the command by all means, but please -only use the "full" extension if absolutely necessary. It can -create a LOT of messages passing between clusters.
-Q.I like to be working in the shack while logged into the -cluster but I can't be looking at the screen all the time. How -can I be alerted when anything happens?
-A.Use the SET/BEEP command. You can find information -on this in the "DXSpider Command Reference" section.
-Q.I got disconnected from the cluster and now I can't log -back in again. What is wrong?
-A.Probably the cluster thinks you are still logged on and -will not let you reconnect using the same call to prevent loops. -Try logging on again adding an ssid to your callsign as DXSpider -treats G0YLM and G0YLM-1 as different users.
-Q.How do I know if I have got the latest version of this -user manual?
-A.The latest and greatest will always be on the Website. It will -also be included with every release of DXSpider. As always, if unsure, -ask your sysop what version number is the latest.
