[Xastir] New user to xastir program

[Russell Blair]

Well David, What I was doing on my Windows 7, Cross County Wireless 
(CCW) APRS Messager it would APRS signal from HF ( PSK 63-MFSK 16 and 
others) and with the program it would send it to the internet. Also I 
was doing ProPNet on the HF as well....Messager has it TNC , Now along 
with messager I was using UZ7HO program for AX25 in the same way, and 
when Message would tx, so would UZ7HO would to, using Kiss port 4000 
between the two.

Now that I can get messager to run wine, but I can get UZ7HO to work in 
wine to 300 buad on HF.  ? will xastir key the Radio using vox.. and do 
APRS Beacon using my location and then,  I have other question about 
Mint18 because I am a newbie on this OS, S I can use all the help I can get.

All of my APRS and ProPNet work has been on the HF bands mostly on 30m.

Thanks  Daivd
