Hello Nate,

While I can't comment on the specific TNC hookup---please remember to
carefully check the MENU settings on the TS-2000.  Pay special
attention to settings about baud (9600), etc.

For example:

50E MAIN
50F 9600

There may be others, but look over the menus carefully.  There are
LOTS of things you can set in the radio--it's very handy!

73,

Mark N8MH
