[amsat-bb] A Little Help Please

[PE0SAT | Amateur Radio]

Hello Gerald,

Look at AGW Packet Engine, this can be connected to a hardware TNC in 
kiss mode.
When that is working connect UISS via the AGW protocol to AGW Packet 
Engine.

So the setup would look like:

UISS -- via localhost tcp port 8000 -> AGW Packet Engine -- via RS232 
serial --> MFJ-1270C TNC
