  • Syncterm Downloading Qwk Packets

    From Tom Moore@VERT to All on Mon Dec 2 09:49:48 2024
    Hi,
    How do I download a qwk packet of messages to my local machine with Syncterm?
    I set my download / upload directory settings inside of Syncterm.
    I see in my user config I can set the default transfer protocol, but I do not know how to download the file or files after this.

    Thanks,

    Go to the QWK menu on the BBS and hit 'D' to download.

    Hi,
    I worked with Dan to get my packet handling issue resolved.
    Uploading and downloading packets seems to work.
    Now I just have to learn how to use the functions of the reader now.
