<DIV>The only work out my KPC-3 gets nowa days is beaconing my weather
station from the ui-view32 software, cost me nearly $300 back in the day of
packet 16 years ago, and it got a lot of work, but now, just seats in the
corner of the shack tx every 30 mins, I have always wanted to setup a Igate
on hf ( 40mtrs ), oh well, one day maybe if the wife is not looking at the bank
account I mite look at the KAM.

<DIV>Hi Shaun,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've been running a Kantronics KP3 ($80 on VKHAM) with a IC2820 at
my shack for about three month now and it works a treat, VK2VK-5.
(2M)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Software is Ui-View and running KISS on the KP3</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have just landed a <STRONG>Kantronics All mode "KAM"</STRONG>
(runs HF and VHF) from UK for $120 AU.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hoping to be on HF within the week if work allows. I also have
a FT-857D that I hope to run my HF Igate on.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If I can be of any assistance give me a yell.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For your info. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>OK, I set the TNC back to 2m 1200 settings and all working fine, so
it would</DIV>
<DIV>appear the 200 vs 800hz was the issue. Silly that Kantronics didn't
address</DIV>
<DIV>the issue rather than just telling you it won't work.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I set my symbol to a bike as I had never really worked out how to
do that part</DIV>
<DIV>or the set up although for today I think I should change it to a
boat with</DIV>
<DIV>this rain!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And for the info of the APRS.net.au people this link is broken in
the</DIV>
<DIV>configurations page: <A
href="http://web.ew.usna.edu/~bruninga/aprs/symbolsX.txt">http://web.ew.usna.edu/~bruninga/aprs/symbolsX.txt</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Once again, thanks for all your help. Even though it
didn't work I now have a</DIV>
<DIV>better understanding of this part of our hobby.</DIV>
