Custom Channels

Custom Channels

It is possible to add a shortcut command to your node to directly put users into a specific predefined chat topic channel on the chat servers.

So instead of having to join General first and type /topic, it is possible to just type ‘mychat’ from your node

All it requires is a line added to the config and a reboot.

How To:

Find the APPLICATION definitions in bpq32.cfg

Take a new number (less than 32) that isnt already used by previous APPLICATION declerations

APPLICATION 6,MYCHAT,CHAT mychat

MYCHAT can be anything you specifically want.

That is all there is to it.

Additionally:

To make the application a node entry in the table for users to connect to, add a callsign, alias and netrom quality:

APPLICATION 6,MYCHAT,CHAT mychat,MYCALL,ALIAS,255
