[aprssig] KPC-3+ KISS mode delayed packet issue?

[Chuck Kimball]

I've seen it on several Igates, even when not running KISS.  My solution 
is to restart UI-View nightly, and as part of the comm command file, I 
send a reset to the TNC.  Seems to avoid the problem.

When I've seen it pop up it's always been after the TNC has run for 
extended periods (weeks, months).
