Please don't send anything but ASCII text files. It takes me much

there's no point in connecting to more than one aprs.net or aprs2.net

Yea, give that a shot. Create it as root:
cd /var

If that file is not created, that means that Xastir is not opening
the device. Whether it's a permission problem or the USB device has
switched names on you, I cannot say.
Look at
This is the device name, cut out of the terminal window;
cu.USA19H1a2P1.1 which is what I'm using. This goes back to my
original thought that it wasn't seeing the tnc-startup.d700 script.
