[aprssig] Kenwood d710

Hi Floyd
             I purchased the new D710 almost as soon as it came out.
Since then I have been using it exclusively on traditional packet 
radio.
In my opinion the TNC problems of the D700 have all been fixed.

I use my D710 with my EcomScs software in the AGWPE mode. Which means 
that the D710 TNC is in KISS mode. With EcomScs I have sent rather 
large attachments and have not experienced any problems.

The D710 TNC now has a built in Mail box that also works just fine.

My only complaint is that I wish that Kenwood had made the D700 TNC as 
good as the D710 TNC.
