MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE                                     BASIC OPERATION 
Read 
This command lets you read messages addressed to you.  When you list the messages in 
the mailbox you notice an N flag next to the messages which you have not read.  Once 
you read those messages the N flag will change to a Y flag.  This is an indicator to both 
you and the SYSOP that the messages have been read.  From there you can perform a 
global kill on all of your messages or the SYSOP can kill them individually. 
NOTE: The only way an N flag can get changed to Y flag during a read is that the person 
who the message is addressed to needs to read it. The flag will not change for any 
other person who reads the message. 
Read ## 
Allows you to read the message in slot ##.  Where ## is a particular slot number.  This 
command works the same as the R command, except its for reading the individual slots. 
Send call 
This allows the remote user, local or remote SYSOP to send a message to the 
designated callsign.  "CALL" must be a callsign valid under the same format as the 
MYCALL, CONNECT or other callsign commands.  You can also send messages in 
NTS (National Traffic System) format.  You will need to refer to the ARRL NET 
DIRECTORY for more detailed information on the NTS system. 
SP call 
This allows the remote user, local or remote SYSOP to send a personal message to the 
designated callsign.  This is a private message and only the person to whom the message 
is addressed can read or kill it. The SYSOP can also read the private messages.  When a 
private message is listed a P flag is shown in the "Message Type" flag block.  The P flag 
can also be inserted by the originator or the SYSOP through the Edit command. 
Detailed Pactor Mailbox Overview 
In the previous section, Brief Overview of Pactor Mailbox,we briefly discussed the Pactor 
Mailbox in general.  In this section, we will go into more detail about the commands that are 
presented by the mailbox prompt shown below: 
Mailbox Ready 
free de callsign (H(elp), K, L, R, S)> 
The n free is the amount of RAM space available for messages.  The n will be no higher than 
65K, if a 512K or a 128K Mailbox is in operation.  If the Mailbox is 32K then nn will be 
32K.  The de callsign is the callsign of your Pactor mailbox, that the mailbox sends back to 
the remote user.
