Q. What do the status codes mean? . They are N, Y, F, K, H, D, S.
A.

Q. With regard to the buttons with the station/BBS calls there are three states: greyed out, bold protruding and bold recessed. What does a recessed indication mean:

Protruding – send to this station
Recessed – already sent to this station.
