I'm curious on something. Will the existing modems out there recognize that
POCSAG is coming across and not transmit. I know that a 1200 Baud Modem
won't "hear" a 9600 baud modem and could transmit causing a collision.

Mostly it just depends on what tones are used. 9600 baud doesn't
exactly use tones. Sounds more like white noise. Does POCSAG use
tones somewhere near 1200/2200Hz? If so, it's likely that the TNC's
will hold off.

Of course now that I've said that, with the configuration Bob's
talking about it would be unlikely that you'd have POCSAG and APRS
on the same frequency.

This is true... Except now you won't have the same coverage as APRS per
something Bob had said earlier... (I think).

Subject: KAM Plus lock up
From: "Jason Rausch" <ke4nyv@msn.com>

I have a KAM Plus running firmware 8.0. I have a problem with the TNC
locking up. When you power it up, the tuning indicator goes all the way to
the right and just sits there. Repeated power ups will cause the idicator
to sometimes to the extreme left and stay there.
I HAVE ALREADY attempted a hard reset, pulled the power and back up battery
and let the TNC sit for about 2 hours. No change. It has done this before
but a few hard resets would normally reset it back to normal opertaion.
Also when powering, all I get in ther terminal is a single odd ascii
character, not a flow of characters such as when you have the wrong baud
rate set between the TNC and computer.
Any ideas?

Just a follow up on running UI-View32 on a 486DX66-36Mb/Win95B for those
who wondered.
I have UI-View32 running on that lil' box for about a week now, and it
runs just peachy. The only thing that's a bit slower is the startup. It
takes perhaps twice as long, but there's no hesitation in response from
the user interface. I also ran it with AGWPE with two KISS ports with no
problems.

Ok guys, I thank everyone for there responce but I think that the question
was missunderstood.
I want to run the APRS mode on the radio (TM-D700) not in packet(TNC) mode.
I know that it will pass the data in packet(TNC) mode as I have done this
before. I wish to pass this data to a NON-APRS related device and NOT a
mapping program. I don't think there is a way but I just thought I'd give
it a try.
Thanks again,
Mike

After some 20+ complete radio resets, the TNC STILL ends up locked in
the "OPENING TNC" process. I have made numerous calls to Kenwood-West
and have received NO RETURNS TO MY CALLS!!!
If anyone has had this same experience I would appreciate your passing
along the steps that you followed to regain control of the radio.
Thanks!

Just do what I proposed in my first mail: split the signal from your GPS-RX
with an Y-adapter to
1. the GPS-Port of D700 (in and a out) and
2. to your other device that needs incoming (ONLY!) GPS-data.

There's also an existing amateur radio paging system in Germany that is
fastly growing at the moment with conecting all the POCSAG-masters together
by S&F via packet radio.
http://www.durm-online.de/pag100.htm

It's working very well, where you have coverage. You can also be informed by
a POCSAG-message when you have new mail in your BBS's personal inbox.

Jim, what is plugged into the radio? GPS? Other serial device? Make sure
that another device is not the culprit. Occasionally, my D7A does this, and I
have to cycle from TNC to PACKET to OFF and back to TNC a few times, but then
it finally boots.
Whack the box a few times to make sure there's not a cold solder joint too.
I, and others have and problems with cold solder joints, and failed solder
joints on the recepticles that receive the various plugs for external
devices...
