    Thanks Ricardo and all others who responded..

    I will keep all these notes together to get something going. In the
    meantime I brought up Tnos (again) and used 'tip' to reset the port
    putting it in and out of kiss etc.. Works so nice..

    I am using a kam + which may take more or less commands to get it to
    work right? Not sure. It has two ports and with the ax25 utils I first
    attach the kam+ using 'mkiss:

    /usr/sbin/mkiss -s 4800 /dev/ttyS5 /dev/ptyb3 /dev/ptyb4

    Then I attach the individual ports as follows:

    /usr/sbin/kissattach -l -m 256 /dev/ttyb3 vhf 44.135.34.201
    /usr/sbin/kissattach -l -m 80 /dev/ttyb4 20m 44.135.34.201

    It was the 'vhf' port I was trying to reset or at least put back into
    kiss. A power failure knocked everything out here and I had to start
    again.

    Thanks again for all who helped..
