Are we sure that it's a buffer problem?
I reported a fix for the winlink people as they didn't know that TC is
a command for all the Kenwood APRS radios. So when you where connected
and received the status from winlink it's sending i.e QTC 0 QTC 1
etc the radio "locked"
TC 0 and TC 1 is enabling/disabling the TNC. They have made a
workaround for this.
Anyhow testing is a good thing to do before relaying 99.9% on a system.
