Yes, unfortunately you're totally right and I got too excited in seeing
that some packets were sent.
In fact I don't know why now one in a few "send" commands gets through now
-maybe just garbage collection- but the problem it's still there.

CMD:MYCALL IZ0MJE
CMD:UNPROTO APX200 VIA WIDE2-2
CMD:CONV
CMD:    /�&=4151.1 N/01225.4 ExXASTIR-Linux
>X:2<    /�&=4151.1 N/01225.4 ExXASTIR-Linux

I selected the "serial tnc" only option, not the "serial tnc with gps", so
if anything gps related interferes it's out of place.

Thanks for the explaination.
More tinkering needed.
