I have mine set up such that a connect to kp4djt-10 regardless of where it
hits the stack gets routed to the telpac app. Same goes for telpac. And
Telpac is in the command list, so if you are at the command prompt and
you type  TELPAC (does not need to be caps) you will get a instant connect
to the app.
