    bpq needs an IP address to run.
    this should be enough:
    ifconfig bpq0 44.130.x.y up
                         ^(your ampr IP. because it's internal, i suggest 44.128.0.2)
    axparms -setcall bpq0 DG1CAD-12

    "ether" in axports: bpq0 is referenced as "bpq0". afaik, nameif (interface
    naming) on bpqether interfaces is -unfortunately- not supported.

    you should change it to
    kiss DG1CAD-10 19200 255 7 KISS TNC
    bpq0 DG1CAD-12 100000 255 7 BPQ/ethernet
