18 <P>Once logged in to the cluster, you should set your details so that
19 anybody who wishes to contact you can find out who and where you are.
20 There are four items to set, your name, qth, location and home node.
21 Setting these details also allows the use of the SHOW/HEADING and
22 SHOW/SUN commands from within the cluster. Unless you set your QTH
23 and location, these commands cannot function.
24 Once you have set your name, DXSpider will greet you with it next time
25 you login. Your QTH setting is where you live and it is a good idea
26 to add your locator to this as the location setting is converted to
27 latitude and longitude once inputted. You can actually set your location
28 in latitude/longitude or as a locator. Setting your home node will
29 tell the program where you wish mail to be sent to you.</P>
