But there seems to be a severe shortage of Motorola part: MC13055 FSK Receivers that is needed for this project. I only need 2, but would like to get about 4 or 6, so I have some extras. I have tried several Motorola distributors and they all say the same thing: Due to heavy demand I will not be able to get that part for serveral months! I also tried many of the usual hobby outlets, but no luck. Does anyone have a few of there buggers laying around that I might buy?

The problem with Baycom and Windows is that Baycom is dependent on precise processor timing to do bit banging, and heavily uses interrupts. Windows is a *cooperative* multitasker that doesn't do a good job of protecting memory and often doesn't allow precise timing because of ill behaved applications or heavy loads. So you get either very poor performance, or even hangs and crashes when you attempt to mate Baycom with Windows. If you must run Windows, a hardware TNC will give much fewer problems.
