Has anyone built a working 10 Ghz link. I've looked at the article in the
handbook and have been unsuccessfull in locating the 13055 device.
I'd like to hear from anyone who has built it or something functionaly like
it.

I vote *YES* keep up the *technical* dialogue.
Definitely, let's keep up this technical dialogue.
Has anyone else noticed that KA9Q beats the pants off commercial
routers, e.g. the Livingston PortMaster? Damn thing won't let me set
up a static route to a network. If I'd only run with my intuition and
gotten a sync card with a packet driver, I'd have gotten the routing
job done at half the cost AND half the time AND half the exasperation.

Could someone please let me know when the 'vote taking' is over. This is
getting old and is far less interesting (and more annoying) than
talking/arguing abt OS's.

Has anybody tried the Kantronics 9612 with NET or NOS ?
The ads and QST review seemed rather positive. I confess
I'm tempted.

I have a 9612 running KISS connected to Linux kernel ax.25 . It's a
_really_smart_ TNC. Simultaneous dual-port operation along with
port-to-port gateway, multi-connect BBS, KA-NODE (a less than
full-featured NetROM implementation), online help, etc. It's super
low-power - the software even lets you turn off the front panel lights
to save power. It knows about multi-drop KISS, or you can switch either
port to be "kiss port 0" and run single-drop KISS on that port. The
9600 port knows how to connect to an external modem at 19,200 baud,
like the ones built into the Kantronics Data Radio. The only thing I
don't like is that the host baud rate is limited to 19,200.
At $200, I don't see why you'd buy any other 9600 TNC. None of the
others will run both ports simultaneously.
I think that these TNCs would make inexpensive remote relays. $200 for
the TNC, $90 for a TEKK radio, say $200-$300 more for enclosure, antenna,
solar panel, battery. The whole thing could go in a small box atop a phone
pole. If they made one with two 9600 ports, it would be even better for
remote relay stations. Too bad it doesn't know how to gateway IP - you'd
have to digipeat or use KA-NODE.
Unfortunately, at the moment the nearest 9600 operator and I can't hear
each other. I'm working on that.

Subject: pk232 into KISS from nos?
To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu
I'm just starting to use JNOS 1.10e. I can't seem to get my pk232 MBX
into KISS mode and set the speed to 9600 from the autoexec.nos file.
Here's what I've tried based on other's suggestions:
attach asy 0x3e8 5 ax25 ax3 2048 236 9600
param ax3 rts 1
param ax3 dtr 1
comm ax3 "FRack 4"
comm ax3 "HBaud 9600"
comm ax3 "KISS on"
comm ax3 "Restart"
JNOS works well otherwise when I put the Pk232 into KISS via a windows
program pc-packratt and then exit to JNOS. Any ideas or suggestions?
