Call a station or another node
Syntax: C Call [via] [digi1 digi2 ... digi8] <CR>
The CALL command is used to connect further onwards. The node will try
to connect you to the station via the path you specified. To confirm your command, you get
the message "link setup...".As soon as the connection is made, you will get
"*** connected to <call>" from the node. When the called station did not
respond, you get "*** failure with <call>". If the called station sends a
Busy (DM), the message "*** busy from <call>" is sent to you. The link
setup can be interrupted by sending a single <CR> to the node. If you see the
message "*** can`t connect twice", you have tried to establish a QSO which
already exists with the same callsign fields.
With the C-Command it is also possible to change the user port, if the
node has more than one. By typing "C -7" you change to the port with the SSID 7.
This is acknowledged by the message "*** <call>: SSID OK".
If you connect to another station from the node onwards, and that
station disconnects you, you will get reconnected to the node. To show you what happened,
you get a "*** reconnected to <call>" then.
A connect request will be denied, if it causes a loop in the network.
If, for example, you are connected to DB0KT via DB0ODW, you cannot connect back to DB0ODW
nor to other nodes behind DB0ODW. You should quit the QSO with DB0KT then and retry after
the reconnect.
Example: (user is connected to DB0HP)
