Yea, cuz you're sending a 0x00 for the port number during transmit,
which will select only one port.

It's been a while, but yea, I think you have to run AX.25 with the
MKISS driver and get that running before you start up Xastir, or at
least before you start up the Xastir ports that use it.  You should
see a "Port Number" place to fill in on the Xastir interface and
that's the TRANSMIT port number.  Xastir doesn't care which port
packets come in on for receive, it just decodes them all.
