Hi Guys,

Okay, I think I have this figured out. Could not sleep this morning, was
up early at 4:00 :-)

First of all forget the OpenBCM that I blabbed about earlier. Download
the
last and final BCM32_142N from the 'http://baycom.org/baybox' site. I
was
able to interface it to FlexNet32 this morning, then use Paxon on the
same
PC to actually connect to it.

The only way to link BCM32 to FlexNet32, is via AXIP between them.

One simply needs to add an AXIP to the FlexNet32 parameters, then modify
the init.l2 file for BCM32 so that you are using 'assign axip', with
'port'
and 'rxport'. MAKE sure the RX-port and TX-port are not the same, or
else
both FlexNet32 and BCM32 will complain since you can't have both
programs
bound to the same 'ip address/port number' combination.
 
If anyone wants more detail, please contact me.

I have yet to try an actual TNC radio connection, but I'm sure if this
works, then the TNC should not be a big deal.

Best regards,
