I'm assuming that the KISS code will still have the automatic reset problem. Also... what's the difference between the KISSS V4 and KISS V7 code on UCSD? I've found a KISS V4 ROM image but can't determine what values to patch before I burn the EPROM. The KISS V7 code does not contain a ROM image. Any info or pointers to some code would be appreciated.

No, there are two new types of TNCs developed by german hams. I don't have data sheets at hand, but here is a rough description: TNC3s - uses Motorola 68302 - modular modems, 1200 AFSK, 9600 G3RUH and a high-speed serial link to interconnect several TNC3s's available - up to three of these modems/if modules can be used in one TNC TNC4 - NEC V20 (or was it V30?) processor - 4 ports/TNC - SCSI to interconnect several of these TNCs Both terminal and network node software are available for both, I can try to dig out details and supplier info on request.
