A MTU of 256 is a very acceptable size, what others "may" be complaining
about is your "window" size, the amount of 256byte packets sent in one
transmission.
An acceptable configuration here is normaly 2 packets in one transmission at
1200 baud, to achive that you could use the route command to set the window
size.
route add 44.xx.xx.xx mss 256 window 432 irtt 5000 <baycom_port>
{or are we talking 27.xx.xx.xx here ???}
There are other params like persist slotime etc etc, those you can set with
'kissparms' i belive, i dont have a baycom interface but you could follow
the example(s) in the AX25-HOWTO.
Other "ax25" params t1 t2 etc, can be set in /proc/sys/net/ax25/bc0/*
The defaults are "not" agressive.

Its not MRU, MRU = Maximum Receive Unit and is not used under ax25, so the
people complaining dont realy know what they are talking about, they are
quite possably jelous because you have something unique which they dont
have.
