Hello Dan,

I never had much luck in switching my D710 in and out of KISS mode let alone switch the various modes from the command mode due to timing issues, etc. What I did find 100% reliable is the following program written by Guido Trentalancia IZ6RDB. It was posted to some email list on the web so I made a copy of it and posted it here:

http://www.trinityos.com/HAM/CentosDigitalModes/usr/src/misc/D710/tmd710_tncsetup.c


To compile it on your Rpi, just use:

   gcc -o tmd710_tncsetup tmd710_tncsetup.c


After that, just run the program with no options and it will display the available options.

Hi Guys

Just a bit of background, Running Xastir on a RaspberryPi, the main purpose of 
this unit is for Raynet (uk emergency comms)

I have been using it with my D72 handheld with some success. What I did notice 
is that its fine with packet12 mode. I have a script on the Pi that runs Xastir 
on startup and that then fire the command to launch D72 into PKT Mode.

I need this to be able to digi packets. Easiest way of doing this is to use the 
radio in APRS12 mode and set the UI-Digi on the radio, Effectively meaning that 
Xastir acts as a RF to IGate. However to use APRS12 mode the radio has to 
already be in that mode for Xastir to see the data from the handheld. Having 
used other windows flavor based software it can force the radio into the 
particular mode. My Scripts for the D72 are below

This issue also applies to the Kenwood D710 I am testing

Wonder if anyone has any tips.
