We are happy to announce three DTMF commands to the whole community in order
to say THANK YOU.

These are as follows:

**35##  - request a test beacon CW
**36##  - request a test packet 1k2 AFSK FM (UI-Frame)
**60##  - request a housekeeping frame in 1k2 AFSK FM (KISS frame)

Every command will be confirmed with a short "beep" on the CW frequency.
