BBS.P1103 operation 881220
NOTE: This BBS does not do any connects automatically. It will auto
forward and auto reverse forward once connected to another BBS.
So, how do you start a forward? Well to send something out,
connect to the station you want to forward to, type F7 function key.
If B:DIR has it correct, it will go out, with header from first line in
B:FWD file. B:FWD also determines what gets forwarded to which BBS.
BID bulletins are forwarded from info in B:BID and B:USR files.
BBS sends message, then sends "F>" to try a reverse forward, and if
other BBS knows what that means, it will send mail to your BBS.
STREAM SWITCHES must be set to ^B ($02) for normal port (VHF)
and ^C ($03) for other port if KAM or KPC-4.
CMD must be changed to ^A ($01).
STATSHRT must be ON. This makes KPC send a short status in response
to STATUS command.
