=== 0^HELP^The HELP Command
HELP is available for a number of commands. The syntax is:-

  HELP <cmd>
  
Where <cmd> is the name of the command you want help on.

All commands can be abbreviated, so SHOW/DX can be abbreviated
to SH/DX, ANNOUNCE can be shorted to AN and so on.

=== 0^SHOW/DX^Interrogate the spot database
If you just type SHOW/DX you will get the last so many spots
(sysop configurable, but usually 10).
   
In addition you can add any number of these commands in very nearly
any order to the basic SHOW/DX command, they are:-
   
on <band>       - eg 160m 20m 2m 23cm 6mm
on <region>     - eg hf vhf uhf shf      (see SHOW/BANDS)
   
<number>        - the number of spots you want
<from>-<to>     - <from> spot no <to> spot no in the selected list
   
<prefix>        - for a spotted callsign beginning with <prefix>
*<suffix>       - for a spotted callsign ending in <suffix>
*<string>*      - for a spotted callsign containing <string>
   
day <number>    - starting <number> days ago
day <from>-<to> - <from> days <to> days ago
   
info <text>     - any spots containing <text> in the info or remarks
   
spotter <call>  - any spots spotted by <call>
   
e.g. 
   
   SH/DX 9m0
   SH/DX on 20m info iota
   SH/DX 9a on vhf day 30

=== 0^SHOW/DXCC <prefix>^Interrogate the spot database by country
This command takes the <prefix> (which can be a full or partial 
callsign if desired), looks up which internal country number it is
and then displays all the spots as per SH/DX for that country.
   
The options for SHOW/DX also apply to this command.   
e.g. 
   
   SH/DXCC G
   SH/DXCC W on 20m info iota

=== 0^SHOW/PREFIX <callsign>^Interrogate the spot database by country
This command takes the <callsign> (which can be a full or partial 
callsign or a prefix if desired), looks up which internal country number 
it is and then displays all the relevant prefixes for that country
together with the internal country no, the CQ and ITU regions.
