Note: Each node owner has the option of changing the basic commands, particularly to avoid conflicts with other repeater

functions. Before using EchoLink over a nearby repeater, it is a good idea to try to contact the node owner, or

someone else familiar with the node, to see if there are any special operational rules.

You use this function for accessing nearby relay stations by using DTMF codes from
a TM-D710A/E or by transmitting a control command to the relay station. It is possible to register
