I really would like to have a simple re-implementation of ye olde TNC-2s that had a small eprom and a kiss mode TNC with a fricking BBS on ax-25 that worked like a charm. They existed I believe around 1988-1990ish.

I mean, yes, this cable works with direwolf, but then I need to have a full linux system running, which I could do without for the purpose of an emergency comms system.

I just found https://github.com/cheponis/KISS-TNC2, but I think this is just the KISS mode, not the AX25 stuff.

I found https://www.ir3ip.net/iw3fqg/doc/wa8ded.htm which I think describes the TNC2S software I was running many years ago.

Any other pointers would be great.
