I have 4 different brand name TNC's I use to cover 1200, 9600 & 38k4 baud ranges. For 1200/9600 my PK96 works the best for me as the data rates are easily software changeable, no dip switches or jumpers to worry about. I have a KPC-9612+ which works well but requires 2 different data cables to work 1200 & 9600 with my IC910 rig. I found I had to make some specific internal software settings to get it to continuously work right. As with any TNC you have to have the right data cable / cables that match your TNC to rig.

I would like to get into the digital sats and would like some ideas on TNC to consider. I looked at the MFJ web site but it appears they have discontinued many of their models. Also looking KAM but have no idea which one to pick. Appears major deltas are baud rates 1200 vs 9600.
Thanks for any ideas or things to consider.
