Congrats.  It's pretty cool when someone "sees the light".  Welcome
to the community.

Agreed.  Well, we have a Wiki, and there's also the info.aprs.net
Wiki.  The latter may be the best one to focus on 'cuz it would
reach more people than ours and is a more general Wiki.

Perhaps "Linux Soundmodem Configuration" and "Linux AX.25
Configuration" pages would be in order if they don't already exist?
If something like them do exists, perhaps someone could report back
with the URL's and we could all pitch in to improve them.  A bit of
giving back to the community for you non-programmers... hi hi

I'll certainly pitch in as I have time.
