The encryption is just ancillary, and not that good? The encryption only becomes secure when you use a one time pad...right?

Having the ***SAME*** version for the Kantronics TNC (KAGOLD) for use with the KAM+ and the KPC models and using the ***SAME*** computer ***WITHOUT*** ONE problem at any time and I can leave it without worry PKGOLD I can not do that at all. (also tried it on other computers with the same results) One other problem I have notice is that opening a connect window it is full of junk chars which should not be there. ?????????? (PKGOLD ONLY) Interfex claims it doesnt have any problems and thinks it mine. Why can I run the same versin for the Kantronics TNC without any problems but yet I can not run the PKGOLD (extra cost) with the AEA products. (PK-232, PK-88, PK-96) Also how many commercial programs leave out the manual because you have it with your other versions of gold Has anyone seen or have the so called DUALPORT PKGOLD yet.
