32file type. To do this, you can use either AdvancedFM (yet to be documented), or you can do this from the
33Documents tab. To beam a file from the Documents tab, you must first add that file to the Documents tab if you
34havent already (see <xref linkend="adddoc">). Then, go to the Documents tab and press and hold on the icon for
35the file you want to send. A dialog should appear, with a button in the bottom right labeled "Beam". Press this
