AMTOR is an immediate command that switches your PK-232 into the AMTOR mode.
Your PK-232 is automatically placed in ARQ Standby condition.
Your station is then available for automatic access by and response to any AMTOR
station that sends your SELCALL. The PK-232 can communicate using either the
CCIR 476 (4-character SELCALL) or the CCIR 625 (7-character SELCALL) protocol.
Your monitor will also display any inbound FEC (Mode B) transmissions.
See the MYSELCAL and MYIDENT commands to enter your 4 and 7 character SELCALLs.

ARQ is an immediate command that starts an AMTOR Mode A (ARQ) SELCALL (SELective
CALL) to a distant station.
To begin the Mode A (ARQ) selective call type "ARQ" followed by the other
station's SELCALL:
Example: ARQ NNML
(4-character SELCALL)
or ARQ VTMFFFF (7-character SELCALL)
As soon as a is typed, your PK-232 will begin keying your transmitter in
the three-character AMTOR ARQ burst sequence. If the distant station receives
and decodes your selective call successfully, the two AMTOR systems synchronize
and begin the Mode A (ARQ) AMTOR "handshaking" process.
See the MYSELCAL and MYIDENT commands to enter your 4- and 7- character SELCALLs.
Other AMTOR commands are ACHG, ACRRTTY, ADELAY, ALFRTTY, ARQTMO, EAS, HEREIS and
RECEIVE.
