Anyone know what this means to us?  Can we use AGWPE via Xastir
using this method?

you can interface the linux kernel to agwpe using xglue, this program
connects to agwpe as a application and to linux (or xnet,jnos etc) on
the otherside using axudp where every port is another axudp link.
you can also do it the otherway around with agwpe connecting to linux
using axudp as a radioport
on the linux side you can link an ax25 socket to an axip socket
transparently with rxecho.
