Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
I never said you could use VARA on KAM. All I mentioned was what are modes typically used on VHF FM.
Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
Theoretically yes.? In practice, no? The KAMs are radio modems intended primarily to be used in a command-line mode from an ASCII terminal or terminal app on a computer. You switch from the VHF to

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
I'm not sure about the other modes, but Pactor (or Pactor 1) seems to be supported by very few HF gateways. Those might be gateways that are still using older versions of Trimode... IDK, but I vaguely

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
Are any of the modes that the KAM+ are capable of even still in use anymore? I was planning to use it on both HF and VHF packet since it has the two ports, I wouldn't have to swap connections back and

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
That's strange that you can't join the group. The last email I got from that forum was January 11, 2025. Were you going to use the KAM + for anything other than packet? With the soundcard interface

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
Why even bother with the archaic hardware TNC?? Use the soundcard interface for everything!? I have done extensive controlled tests of hardware vs soundcard "soft TNCs" like the "UZ7HO Soundmodem"

Re: Basic Introduction
Will Varadroid still interface with Backcountry Navigator, and do you all run a headless pc for VARA? TIA, David

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
I keep trying to join that forum, and it must be abandoned by the admins. I'll have to check and see whether I'm already on software carrier detect, I may be. The advice to use 9600 line I will take.

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
Since it seems to work ok with the squelch open, wouldn't it be better to set CD to SOFTWARE and leave the squelch open? I have my packet gateway's KPC3+ CD set to INTERNAL with the squelch closed and
Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
And by the way, most of us run open squelch all the time on packet, and I haven't connected the squelch line to a TNC in years (actually decades). If your TNC does not do a good job of DCD on open

Re: 2 Winlink Applications
Keep in mind, if you run two instances of Winlink Express on different computers, they will have separate message databases. They will not be sync'ed, so you will see different messages on each

Winlink Account deleted after inactivity

Re: Need help with a FTM-300 using the data jack
It definitely seems like the KAM+ doesn't appreciate the voltage rise on the RX line when the squelch opens when I leave squelch turned on. It only decodes if I leave squelch knob turned off. As for
