Using software TNC modems

J.C. W4QK

Has anyone had success using a software Packet modem such as Soundmodem or Packet Engine Pro with their Flex 6XXX. I have been trying to use Winlink Packet with each of the mentioned programs to operate Packet on 2 Meters with my transverter and Flex6400M but have had no success. If anyone knows of a published solution I would be grateful for that information. If anyone has another option for operating Packet Radio with the Flex I would be very interested.

73 to all,

are you at least getting the tnc recognized by the software, as far as a com port, or audio in/out???

Hi Dave,

Yes the software TNC is recognized and everything seems to be correct but I can never get a connection. I have tried connecting Peer to Peer with a friend 2 miles away as well as through a Digipeater 20 miles away. My local friend can hear me transmit but does not decode my connection.

I see that I am transmitting but I always get a disconnect. I have attached a couple of screen shots to show what I am seeing. Thanks for your interest in helping out.
