It’s been many years since I played with and MFJ TNC, but I think it is as simple as KISS ON and then RESTART if I am not mistaken. Best of luck! 73 -Scott KD4YDD On Mar 5, 2023, at 9:13 AM, Gervais Fillion <ve2ckn2@...> wrote: |
Here is a link to the 1270c manual on repeater builder.

me too it has been years since i played with those old tnc,i have 3 of them and they are all different ,, i am becoming an old man and it is also becoming harder to play with software too,,,everything is slower ahhh there is a dog sled race not far away on the other side of the border here in Maine and i think there is 1 or 2 sled with APRS so i thaught i would restart my Igate for fun but man i have lost knowledge ,,of how it works. And the old Master exec that i am using is getting old too,,it would need some adjustement but i will keep the PA and the PS and scrapped it.i have 2 FT1500 that i will recycled , So i will try your command line , with Putty the tnc respond no1 but with Uiview normally the Led would flash in front of the tnc when KISS is activated,,but not on mine !! thats what bug me will see later,,diner time here and my xyl is calling! 73 scott gervais ________________________________ De : [email protected] <[email protected]> de la part de Scott Brown <kd4ydd@...> Envoyé : 5 mars 2023 10:24 ? : [email protected] <[email protected]> Objet : Re: [UI-View] do you remember???

well StephenBasically, you connect the radio receiver audio to the computer record? LINE-IN? or MIC? jack for RECEIVE.???? And connect the computer audio-out? (usually called? "LINE OUT",? "SPEAKERS", or "HEADPHONES" ) to the radio's mic jack to TRANSMIT. Essentially, you substitute the computer audio-in ("RECORD") and audio-out ("PLAYBACK") for the RX-audio-in? and TX-audio-out of the hardware TNC. Are you going to receive-only,? or do you need to transmit also? ?? If you need to transmit, you will need some sort of "sound card interface" device that can generate PTT (push-to-talk) for the radio transmitter. I have many times, used a Bearcat 760 scanner connected to the MIC-IN of a computer running the Soundmodem app to setup an instant receive-only igate. What kind of radio are you using? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stephen H. Smith??? wa8lmf (at) aol.com Skype:??????? WA8LMF EchoLink:?
