Hams abandoned Kantronics long before Kantronics abandoned the hams. Cheap
hams decided that sound card software was better than a box, and that caused so
many company's, like AEA, to go out of business.

You'll never see another ham based TNC, since hams think that poorly written
soundcard software that is free is better than an external box with it's own
processing.

Morons.

Ref TNC's vs Soundcard stuff. Many seem to have forgotten that none
of the soundcard stuff is actually CRC (cyclic redundancy Checksum).
Or "ARQ" automatic error correction. This is a prime necessity
for digital msg traffic. So a msg originated by someone can be
guaranteed it will arrive at destination error free no matter how
many gateways or bbs it passes through enroute to destination.
