[Xastir] Xastir and TM-D710A

[Russell Handorf]

All,

I'm closer to getting this to work. I've made a new cable matching the 
pinouts, and this time when I view the option of "view incoming data" 
all I see is a repeat about 20+ times of a string:

O->TNC: ?

I've googled for this and dont come up with anything. Anyone have idea's?

Thanks again,
