Life's to short for 1200 baud.

What overhead.

With or without a modules patch, what version of ax25-utils etc.

If its transmitting more than "1" char at a time then your settings are
rubbish, and once again you have not rtfm'd.

The RTT is probably not set, nor window, it looks like your mtu is also to
high for 1200 baud, but thats not the issue (yet).
Futher more, there are 2 corrupt packets, which would indicate a tnc with a
serial speed set to high giving errors, double packets, indicates the RTT
not being set.
What your are trying to do is ask a boy to do a mans job at double the
speed. I suggest you read:
http://sunsite.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/AX25-HOWTO.html
man telnet
man route
Take a look at the sample config files in the ax25-utils package, if you
have done all that, then i suggest you do it again, like the saying goes,
The truth is "IN" there.
Set parameters accordingly, and THEN, when you have done all that let us
know in a more polite and appropriate manner what the difference is.
