The user interface hasn't changed *that* much in 3 years. You should
be able to get it going from the existing docs, although some of the
newer features (such as the autodial slip code) aren't covered.

The "eagle" driver referred to in the code is an obsolete 8530 HDLC card
that was briefly available on the surplus market some years ago. It has
nothing to do with the NE1000.

To support the NE1000 (or any ethernet card) you want to get Russ Nelson's
packet driver collection. You run the appropriate driver as a TSR, and
then do an "attach packet" command in NOS.

You can do this with SLIP. I understand the PPP code is broken (I haven't
used it myself so I don't know). One of these days I'll work on it.

NOS can in theory support as many serial ports as you can fit on the
machine.  It does support shared interrupts, although you have to
specify this by appending the suffix 'c' (chain) to the IRQ number in
the attach line. This tells the driver's interrupt vector to jump to
the vector previously installed on that IRQ number when the handler is
done. When you attach a series of devices on the same interrupt
vector, the last one attached is the first one called when the
interrupt occurs.

NOS has always supported nonstandard interrupts since you have to specify
both the I/O address and the IRQ number explicitly on the attach line.

Be sure to get NS16550A ports.

A local store has this kit in stock.  It looks like it is a Baycom
modem.  If this is the case, it would use the TCM3105 chip.  It comes 
with the Baycom software.  The package says it is for VHF radios.

I'd note that our switches have as many as 5 ports to be serviced. A
mix of low and high speeds. Even with 16550s, the interrupt loading is 
severe. With the dedicated cards, a 12 MHz 286 will handle the load.
They are a major win for anyone contemplating a network switch.

>How about it guys?

I've done a lot of experiments with this. There are really too many
variables involved. Different brands and models of radios have different
pre-emphasis, different TNC modems have varying sensitivities to twist,
the audio stages in the radios have different responses, and the IF/detectors
have different responses.

(1) is best if you can get everybody on your network to do the surgery on
their radios. This gives the most consistent results since the audio
stages of the radios are bypassed and you don't have to worry about
what the manufacturer thought was a good value for the pre-emphasis.
The only variable becomes the IF/detector linearity, and that's usually
quite good over a 3 kHz swing. Note that your TNCs will have to be
able to work with unsquelched radios since picking the signal off the
discriminator bypasses the squelch. This is a plus anyway since several
brands of radio have very slow squelch and that impacts TxD settings
for everyone on the network.

(2) is practical reality because people don't want to add wires and
connectors to their store bought radios. You know, the people who
keep the boxes and wrappings so the resale value won't be harmed, the
same people who are afraid to drill holes in their cars. Performance
will vary all over the clock, but that's the way it is.

(3) (4) these are just plain bad ideas that will guarrantee twist.

Better chips then the 8530 are available. Only for the most there aren't
boards and drivers available. A 8530 pin comparable solution is available.
It is the Zilog Z85230 ESCC and has more buffering. The Rx buffer is increased
from 3 to 8 and the Tx buffer is increased from 1 to 4. After reset the ESCC
is compatible with the SCC. The improvements of the ESCC must be enabled with
new instructions. The SCC driver of PE1CHL NET has support for the ESCC and
works with a mixed configuration of SCC and ESCC.

I have done a lot of testing of early and current version. We use the ESCC
in Holland more then one year without problems. Test results are:
64Kbaud full duplex with an OptoPcScc card (no dma) with upgraded optocouplers
in a 25MHz 386 ISA computer and PE1CHL NET. 

The price of the 10MHz Z85230 ESCC is about the double of the cmos SCC.
Only the Z85230 is difficult to get. I have some stock at home.

First, some brief operational notes:

(1) Messages must not contain any foul language, or commercial purpose.
(2) Messages can only be sent to countries that the United States has
    a third-party agreement.  All others will be destroyed.
(3) Messages from the internet should be less then 5K in length.
    No files should be sent.
(4) If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me either on
    packet radio: WB7TPY@WB7TPY.AZ.USA.NA       -or-
    Internet    : david@stat.com                -or-
    Fidonet     : David Dodell @ 1:114/15

(5) Have fun.  Use the gateway as much as you like.  That is what it is 
    there for.

this true? And if it is, where can I find source code of Jnos? At current
I have no Internet access capabilities.

I have an opportunity to purchase three rock-bound 220mhz tube-type
tranceivers,  and I would like to use them using a G3RUH modem.

Does anyone have any experience with Clegg FM-21 tranceivers, either
with standard 202 (1200bps) or RUH (9600bps) packet modems?

Paul
