Hello Matt. you have more than a dual port TNC. The data engine has it's
own built in computer and 2 TNC's without modems and an rs232 port. I
trust you have the manual for it.

This device is better used with a g8bpq e-prom in it as a node. We
have one here with a 1200 and 9600 baud modems. Works great! I have no
idea how to use one from a linux box.
