    This works in my KPC-3...
    actually.... the command to disable kiss is

    kissparms -p <port> -x (dont forget the port as defined in AXPORTS)

    use "minicom" program (on a non-kiss tnc) to enable with the standard TNC
    command set, INT KISS or whatever MFJ uses. On my KPC-3 I had to do RESET
    after changing the Interface type.
