I continue to believe that running Ethernet-sized frames (1500 bytes) over
AX.25 is a bad idea. Although the AX.25 protocol specification is widely
violated on this score, it does provide for a maximum of 256 bytes per frame.
Unless you have control over every AX.25 router along the path, very odd things
can happen with excessively long frames.
