Good example. In my modified aprsd for linux sockets, I use 
SOCK_PACKET for receive and SOCK_DGRAM for transmit. Is this the best way?

The code was written based on aprsmon (in turn based on listen) for receive,
and beacon for transmit. It needs to run as root to set up the SOCK_PACKET
socket, so I'll have to add code to drop the root priviledges.
