It needs to be dash, not slash.

Dan,

Thanks.  That indeed helps a lot and explains, to some degree, why the find
command isn't finding my local friend's repeater and node.  I noticed, in
your examples, you typed a slash as / but when I try his call as N1UPS/L for
example, it says it can't find it but when I type a dash as in -, it finds
it.  Does it make a difference or am I typing something wrong?

Phil.
