This is the chappie i meant in my last mail, i use this ax25ipd, however i
find it does have drawbacks when things change. That being the reason i
said "and delete /etc/ax25/ax25ipd.routes.
The callsign problem is one which does pop up from time to time, i and Ted
Gervais VE1DRG found a way around it, but to be honest i have dam well
forgotten what it was, Ted help.!!!.
