[amsat-bb] Faking a software TNC as hardware

I am trying to use an application that expects a hardware TNC on traditional serial port. At this point in time I don't have a hardware TNC connected to my satellite station. I do have a traditional multimode TNC I could utilize but I prefer not.

I am looking for a way, if possible, to configure a soft TNC application to pretend it is a traditional serial TNC. Essentially, the soft TNC would respond as a COMx,8N1 TNC just as if it were hardware. Is there a way to do this?
