Well, the packet program for the 100 has been distributed, but what I saw in the documentation indicates it only works at 300 baud and appears to use the intrnal modem rather than using the cheap external TNC's. The programs are available from Ricky Donaldson, 5038 Raindrop Cir. S., Colorado Springs, CO 80917. If you have access to packet already, you can contact N0NJY @ KA0WIN.CO. If you want to play with the programs, he will send them to you if you send disk(s) (I'm not sure how many are needed). Also if you have access to packet, you can look for messages from N0NJY on a BBS and you may find the program files as he did distribute them on the packet network. The Baycom-type programs seem to require a lot of tweaking, based on messages from users I've seen floating around. It seems to basically work, just needs to be adjusted from time to time. I've never run the programs myself. I hope this helps you get going. 73
