[aprssig] New Version of UZ7HO Soundmodem Software TNC Released

[Stephen H. Smith]

UZ7HO released version 0.69 of his AGW-compatible software TNC application 
today ( 29 November 2014).

The new version has TWO separate TCP/IP server ports.  One serves up the 
traditional AGWpe interface.  The other now provides a standard KISS interface.

Note however, that this is delivered over TCP/IP (not a virtual serial COM 
port).  You will still have to kludge up some sort of 
TCP/IP<-->virtual-COM-port  middleware to use this with apps that expect a 
classic KISS-interface serial TNC.

Another added convenience is that the IP port numbers for both servers are now 
configurable from inside the application, rather than by having to hand-edit 
the .INI file.


As usual, I have repacked the "dumb" zip file UZ7HO provides on his website 
into a full-blown Windows "wizard"-type installer that creates the directory, 
Start Menu entries and desktop shortcuts, along with a user guide.
