You should use functions in your shell script.

Oh and it is good pratice to give exit statements a value.

i.e.
Code:
# My Function
GetStation ()
{
  sleep 1 
  date=`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S` 
  clear 
  echo "Please enter your station #\n" 
  read station 
  if [ "$station" = "exit" ]; then 
    exit 3  
  fi
}

# Main code
GetStation

In dynamic update packets, this field is known as "zname" and refers to the zone name. qtype, ztype print "qtype = ", $question->qtype, " "; print "ztype = ", $question->ztype, " "; Returns the record type. In dymamic update packets, this field is known as "ztype" and refers to the zone type (must be SOA). qclass, zclass print "qclass = ", $question->qclass, " "; print "zclass = ", $question->zclass, " "; Returns the record class. In dynamic update packets, this field is known as "zclass" and refers to the zone's class. print $question->print; Prints the question record on the standard output. string print $qr->string, " "; Returns a string representation of the question record. data $qdata = $question->data($packet, $offset); Returns the question record in binary format suitable for inclusion in a DNS packet. Arguments are a "Net::DNS::Packet" object and the offset within that packet's data where the "Net::DNS::Question" record is to be stored.
