I have a MFJ 1270B and cured this problem by getting a new TNC2 EPROM from TAPR.

Not all the ICOM radios will work with the 12v battery packs either! Don't
try it with a IC-2AT or IC-4AT, for instance. ICOM originally did not make
a 12v pack, but added it after introducing the IC-02. The earlier radios
don't have a charging/external power jack either, although ICOM did make a
12v to 9.6v converter which fits on the bottom of the radio like a battery.

As the above title mentions, I am looking for Jnos or some
comparable Packet BBs software to run on SunOS.
Please let me know where I may FTP the source.
Thanks in advance,

I can't seem to find jnos for unix. If you know where I may
find the latest copy please let me know. Also,
could I get an opinion on which 9600bps TNC to buy
if I want to put up a 440mhz internet gateway?
Thanks in Advance.

Keplerian elements are posted weekly to rec.radio.amateur.space and
rec.radio.amateur.misc. Current elements are usually also available
on packet BBS systems.

Lots of luck trying to work with MSYS stations. MSYS's author has been
generally unresponsive about fixing the IP implementation in his software,
and it has been known for a long time to have some serious deficiencies when
it comes to issues like fragmenting big IP packets, etc.

I used to have this problem with a monitor that was about 6-feet from
the rig. I attached some wire to a piece of aluminum foil, and wrapped
the connector at the back of the monitor. I then cut the wire in
increments until the noise was diminished. Still had RFI, but changed
the frequency of it.
At one time, I had a computer that would totally wipe out a TV set that
was two rooms away. THAT is RFI.
