[amsat-bb] Re: Faking a software TNC as hardware

[Steve Daniels]

Easy enough to do, I needed to do this for an app that expected a hardware
TNC.
So I asked the Author of Dire Wolf to include a KISS over IP option.
All you need is HW VSP which is free for a single port version.
Connect that to Dire Wolf via IP port 8001

It works well.
