rxecho passes the packets unmodified, which may or may not be
what I want- not sure. I am trying to let users make calls like:

call co2ja via mystation-15

where i have mystation-15 set up as a digipeating ax25 port. I
don't know how this is specified in the ax25 header, so I can't
say for sure if the digipeating station is supposed to strip this
off somehow. If it is supposed to strip it off, then I don't
think rxecho is designed for that.

Ideas?

Chris
