Q1600 How do I update the list of messages in the Catalog?

A1600 Every time there is a small change, deletion or addition to the Winlink Catalog displayed in the AirMail menu "Window>Catalog," the list should be updated to take advantage of the changes and additions.

The Update is relatively short, while obtaining a new List is a bit longer. Either way, once the change is received, AirMail automatically updates your existing Catalog list. The proper method for updating or obtaining a new list is as follows:

1. Go to the AirMail menu item "Window>Catalog."

2. On the left, expand the directory tree to show "catalog>WL2K"
3. Under Catalog, expand "WL2K' further to show all the PMBO call signs.
4. Pick a PMBO that you wish to use and Click on that PMBO callsign.
5. On the right hand side you will see both "LIST" and "UPDATE."
6. Check "UPDATE" or "LIST." If you choose "UPDATE," all changes & additions will be shown, BUT the deletions will NOT be taken away. However, if you choose "list," then you will have a fresh new shorter list. Unless otherwise instructed, an update will be adequate.
7. When you have checked either "UPDATE" or "LIST," find the same PMBO you placed
   the request under and send that PMBO the request.

8. Wait, and then at another time, check back into any PMBO and retrieve the information you requested. NOTE: Once the update or new list has been received, it will automatically update your AirMail Catalog List. If it does not, then YOU did something incorrectly.
