Chuck,

Would you point me to the claims for fx.25 TNC compatibility? I do not see
any specific TNCs mentioned.

I am real curious about this because 2 years or so I looked at doing some
experiments with modified protocols using existing TNCs. All of them
insisted, even in KISS mode, that the received packet be a valid and correct
AX.25 packet. I went so far as to check the TNC-X code to see what changes
would be needed to allow it to pass invalid packets but decided not to get
into PIC development at that time.

I like the streaming capability with multiple packets and the FEC code
transmitted in one burst. The time delays waiting for TX stability have a
big impact on throughput.

Several modems on that link claim fx.25 compatibility; TNC-X comes to 
mind, but they all seem to have been developed for VHF/UHF use, so YMMV 
on HF.
