Hello Nate,
While I can't comment on the specific TNC hookup---please remember to
carefully check the MENU settings on the TS-2000. Pay special
attention to settings about baud (9600), etc.
For example:
50E MAIN
50F 9600
There may be others, but look over the menus carefully. There are
LOTS of things you can set in the radio--it's very handy!
73,
Mark N8MH

My family enjoys the zoo and the circus. You guys act like those are
bad things :)

Vince, we've been over this ground before:
http://www.amsat.org/amsat/archive/amsat-bb/100day/msg83515.html
to which you actually sent me an apology in response (which I still
have). Have things changed since then, or do you just feel liking
fomenting discontent, again?
The BOD would like nothing better than to launch a high orbit
transponder, but it's not within our capability right now, due to lack
of funding and lack of technical volunteers. Your misrepresentations of
the BOD aren't helping your assumed cause or AMSAT at all.
73, Drew KO4MA
