[Xastir] AX.25 and Tiny Trak's

That's good to hear, so it will work!

No,  'listen' will not display them directly. I have adjusted the txdelay up 
as high as 400 msec and still no joy.  With my old mic-e box,  it will work 
just fine down to 150 msec so I am sure I don't have radio problems  and dev 
is 3.0 khz on both.

Thanks for the offer, but I think some folks have got one here I can mooch.
The TT2 is the one which Rolf DK7IN designed and also using his software.

It still looks like something with the ax.25 so I'll upgrade to 
libax25-0.0.10 and see if that helps.

I can see it all now, betcha I'm gonna kick myself on this one...
