Andrew has a highly relevant question here and it's time to build a
table.   This is primarily for the Northwest Digital UDR-C soundcard
modem but will perhaps work for other off the shelf devices - at least
with a basic conversion cable from whatever to the standard 6-pin mini
din.

Please check the table at the bottom of this post and forward to me
any updates or additional info.  It would be nice to have a "click
here and order this" solution for a packet data radio.   Lots to be
added but at least this is a start.

TCP/IP over legacy packet is another resource worthy of revisiting.
I'm working on a similar project to build a slow speed TCP/IP MESH
with rPI, UDR-C's and some yet unknown radio to build a backup
backbone for the local 1200 Winlink AP's.   My theory is that a 3600
or 4800 baud system will be adequate to support the 1200 Winlink.
