    Hello,

    I'm a new ham and I'm trying to set up packet radio on Linux. I have a
    Kenwood TR-7950 connected to a new KPC-3 Plus. After 2 attempts at
    resoldering the radio port cable to the connectors, I now beleive the
    KPC-3 is recieving packets because I can see the 'Rcv' light turn on now
    and then, sometimes for long periods. It goes on and off and seems very
    active.

    I am using Red Hat 8. Connected to the KPC-3 Plus using minicom. I have
    a 'cmd:' prompt on my minicom window, and the KPC-3 responds to my
    commands. MONITOR is on. ABAUD is set to 9600. The KPC-3 has my call
    sign in it (KB3JCM).

    My problem is, when the KPC-3 recieves packets (as evidenced by the lit
    Rcv LED) the packets do not show up on my Minicom terminal window. I'm
    anxious to see packets at last!

    Can anyone help me solve this problem? Is there a minicom setting I need
    to invoke?

    Thanks a lot!
