I live not too far off downtown, but don't hear any packet racket except
on 144.39.  Where is all the packet?

It is possible that WinPack is not able to service the interrupts from
your
serial port quickly enough and some characters are dropped.  There are
two
possible solutions.  1) Reduce the baud rate between the computer and
TNC,
2) Change the serial port of the computer to one that has a 16550 UART. 
The
16550 has the 16 byte FIFO buffer which gives the processor more time to
service
the interrupts.  The 8250 and 16450 UARTs have no FIFO buffer.

The problem and solutions that I just described would not be related to
any warm
up time.  Are you really sure it is related to the warm up time or does
it just
appear that way?

In Africa: no internet, no radio, no electricity. :)

So ... how am I going to solve this?

OI am not joking, I really need a solution for this.

Yes, first thing would be a generator. Next a old 286 PC. Then ... and
this is where I need you all: since there is no network over there I
thought of HAM: a radio receiving signals and translating them to
files. 

Any help urgently needed. TIA!

you might be able to get it done with packet, or with another error
correcting mode such as amtor, first take the software and convert it
from binary mode to text mode with something like uuencode, send the
file, break it up if you have to, then uudecode it, re-assemble it, and
there you have it.
