TU om. I just used the amazon link and my dual cable is on the way for
$30.99 with free shipping. I only use Linux here, so I figure this
really will be plug and play and play and play.
BTW, have you ever heard of a universal terminal unit? One showed up on
my door step via a local ham using sneaker net. Built by Kantronics
circa early 1980's. Also, an original KAM unit and some other stuff. I
hope at least one will work as a stand-alone TNC and not draw too much
current since my shack is completely solar powered... Now I suppose I
should get busy and build the latest version of Jnos.. . . Should be fun.
Again, TU for the review and the links. The timing just could not have
been better.
