Jan probably had the best answer. AGWPE will handle your hardware TNC quite nicely for use with UISS. It works great with my homebrew Arduino TNC.

Hello Gerald,
Look at AGW Packet Engine, this can be connected to a hardware TNC in kiss mode. When that is working connect UISS via the AGW protocol to AGW Packet Engine.
So the setup would look like:
UISS -- via localhost tcp port 8000 -> AGW Packet Engine -- via RS232 serial --> MFJ-1270C TNC

I thought that UISS software worked with EITHER a software modem OR a TNC, but reading (at least starting to read) the 75 page manual, apparently it does not. Since it does not, please suggest another terminal program or APRS/Packet specific program. My approach for the hardware is an old MFJ-1270C TNC. I'm trying to learn its ins and outs from its 287 page outdated manual. GROINK Additionally, I have a cable ordered with modular end for my radio (IC-2730). Any advise or Elmer-ing will be highly appreciated. It has been over ten years since I had any experience with packet or APRS.
