I do find FRACK used in the 9612 TNC manual. It makes sense.<BR>
I do not find frack used in the jnos 1.11 documentation under that name.<BR>
<BR>
If you can, would you tell me exactly what timing parameters in jnos implement the TNC FRACK timer function?<BR>
In addition, can you confirm that entering kiss mode locks out the TNC frack timer so there is no timer-race?<BR>
