&2 is not in my script, my script:

HOME is a variable, and when you put $HOME the system change the string $HOME by the value, then :
ftp -n -i -v 10.10.10.10 > $2
here the character > is the redirection of the stdout for the ftp, $2 is the second parameter to call the function
If you look to the calls :
send_ftp "dir" $file_log
in this case $file_log is the second parameter in the call
if you don't wnat to use variables you can put the valors, i wrote the scrpt withc variables because i think is better.
