Re: Getting started with YAAC
Changed the TNC to 8N1 on the COM port. Now the data shown in the Test Port button now shows the normal readable traffic seen in Xastir or minicom. But still nothing shows in the Raw Packet Sniffer,

Re: Getting started with YAAC
Did you remember to put the TNC into KISS mode (either manually, or using YAAC's automatic command sending in the Serial_TNC port driver)? The weird characters were probably the ones with parity bit

Re: Getting started with YAAC
Yes, it is in KISS mode. The weird thing I don't understand is why do I see good information in the TEST PORT window, but nothing in the Raw Packet Sniffer?

Re: Still working on the next build of YAAC
Hi Andrew,
Much thanks for engineering and continuing to support YAAC -- I'm still noticing the radio view rendering glitch, but everything else seems to work.
Happy Holidays,

Re: Still working on the next build of YAAC
Note that I haven't released the fix for the rendering issue yet. That's part of the upcoming build 143.

Re: Getting started with YAAC

Re: Getting started with YAAC
Well, I thought YAAC would do it, but it apparently did not. I initially selected TNC2:KISS ON\r\wRESTART\r but that does not seem to do anything. I can't find anything in the TAPR Command Reference

Re: Getting started with YAAC
YAAC should do it. The \r in the command string says to send a carriage return (Enter key if you hand-typed it to the TNC), and the \w says to wait for the next command prompt. Note that specifying

Re: YAAC over aredn mesh?
YAAC can operate over any TCP/IP network (including AREDN mesh). However, its only operating mode there is connecting to an APRS-IS server (or something that acts like an APRS-IS server). So, you
