 **MHV** lists stations in a table format with more detail.\\
 **MHU**/**MHL** Lists stations with UTC/Local timestamps instead of time since last heard.
+SYSOPs can replace the call filter with 'CLEAR' to erase the MHeard lists. //Example - //''MH 1 CLEAR''

 === GETPORTCTEXT ===
+**GETPORTCTEXT** causes BPQ to read any files with names formatted as ''Port#CTEXT.txt'' (where # is a port number).  These need to be in the same location as bpq32.cfg, or if using the Hibbian-packaged version, in /opt/oarc/bpq/.
+This allows for CTEXT to be customised for each individual port.  The files are read once when BPQ is started, however if the SYSOP alters the contents they can be re-read using GETPORTCTEXT.  Any port that does not have a Port#CTEXT.txt file will use the node's general CTEXT or HFCTEXT instead.
 ----
 === TELRECONFIG ===
+**TELR**econfig allows a telnet port configuration to be loaded after being altered in bpq32.cfg by the SYSOP
+<code>TELR p [USERS|ALL]</code>
+//Example -// ''TELR 9 ALL'' reloads the entire configuration for port 9.  Any users will be disconnected.\\
+//Example -// ''TELR 9 USERS'' reloads only the USER access records for port 9.  No users will be disconnected.

 === SAVENODES ===
+**SAVENODES** immediately saves the NODES (and ROUTES ??) table for reloading when BPQ is restarted, rather than rebuilding them.
 ----
 === SENDNODES ===
+**SENDNODES** sends immediate nodes broadcasts on all ports that have 'MHEARD=Y' in their configuration.
 ----
 === SAVEMH ===
+**SAVEMH** Sets the node to save and restore the MH list when being shut down/restarted.
 ----
 === KISS ===
+**KISS** sends a KISS command/value pair.  Parameters required are port, command, and value all specified in decimal
+''KISS 1 2 3''

 === Port Parameters ===
+''TXDELAY, MAXFRAME, FRACK, RESPTIME, PPACLEN, RETRIES,\\
+QUALITY, PERSIST, TXTAIL, XMITOFF, DIGIFLAG, DIGIPORT,\\
+MAXUSERS, L3ONLY, BBSALIAS, FULLDUP, SOFTDCD''
+Each of the commands listed above either update or display that setting for the specified port.
+//Example - // ''PACLEN 1 100'' sets the default maximum packet length for port 1
+//Example - // ''PERSIST 2'' displays the current 'probability to retransmit' value for port 2
+''VALIDCALL'' is also available.  It is not possible to update the list, but it can be displayed.
