Re: tranceiver locks-up in Tx mode. why?

[-*- Jean-Philippe , F5NLG -*-]

Hi,

Is it a modem or a TNC ?
if it's a modem try baycom configuration 

P.S.  in axport it's more easy to put name of device as name you can't make
mistake in this issue. radio is not a device name but ax0 is
try to replace "radio" by "ax0" for the first kiss port , "ax1" for the
second "bc0" for first baycom and so ...
