[amsat-bb] Wisp TNC Commands?

Tony,

MSPE should be putting the TNC into KISS mode, and passing all of the TNC parameters in the TNC Settings tab, and setting your call, and setting the callsigns of the satellite, which are in the General tab.

If you want to watch the actual commands, you could set up a virtual serial port/splitter, point MSPE to one port, and watch it via a terminal program on the other port. 

I find MSPE works as expected with the Paccomm Spirit-2 I'm using.  It supports other TNCs, via menu selection in the TNC Settings tab.
