MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE                                     BASIC OPERATION 
Since you are not connected to another station your packets are sent to the address "CQ," i.e., 
anyone.  The packet you sent was "heard" by the MFJ-1278B and displayed, along with the 
sending station and the destination. 
 
If you also want to see any intermediate digipeater stations being used, you can set MRPT 
ON
.  This feature would be useful if you later want to connect to one of the stations you are 
monitoring and will need a digipeater route in order to reach it.  For example, you might see 
the following display: 
WB6YMH>WD0ETZ,KV7B:Hello, Bill! 
This packet was sent from WB6YMH via KV7B to WD0ETZ. 
 
If there are several digipeaters, or if the message lines are long, the display may be difficult to 
read.  The HEADERLN command can make reading the displayed information much easier.  
You can put the address header on a separate line from the text by setting HEADERLN ON
WB6YMH>WD0ETZ,KV7B: 
Hello, Bill! 
Ordinarily, the MFJ-1278B will stop displaying monitored packets if you connect to another 
station, permitting you to converse without interruption.  The reason for this is that the setting 
of the MCON command.  The MCON command is defaulted to the OFF state.  If you want to 
monitor activity while connected to a packet station, set MCON ON
 
While the MFJ-1278B is monitoring the packet frequency, it is keeping a record of all the 
stations heard.  These stations are recorded into the MHEARD log or list.  To display the list 
of stations heard since the last time your MFJ-1278B was powered up, type the following 
from the cmd: prompt: 
MHEARD  <ENTER> 
the MFJ-1278B will respond with a l,ist of stations much like the example below: 
AD7I 
WA7GXD 
N2WX 
NK6K 
KV7B* 
followed by the cmd: prompt.  The last several stations whose packets were heard by your 
MFJ-1278B are displayed.  The entry "KV7B*" means that KV7B was heard digipeating a 
packet rather than sending one of his own.  You can clear the "heard log" with the 
MHCLEAR command. 
 
You can see the settings of the monitor parameters described above, as well as several others,
