[amsat-bb] IC-9700 + 9600 baud packet?

[Mark L. Hammond]

Sadly i don’t think that is a fix. Unless Icom releases a new firmware to
fix 9k6 bandwidth on xmit, we’re  dead in the water on this one.  It’s not
just a tap in the rig or a TNC issue. It’s an SDR issue in the radio
firmware.

If anyone can influence Icom, please do so!!!!!
