13 | If you want to connect your Linux box to an amateur radio, answer Y | ||
14 | here. You want to read <http://www.tapr.org/tapr/html/pkthome.html> and | ||
15 | the AX25-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. | ||
16 | |||
17 | Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the | ||
18 | kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all | ||
19 | the questions about amateur radio. | ||

28 | This is the protocol used for computer communication over amateur | ||
29 | radio. It is either used by itself for point-to-point links, or to | ||
30 | carry other protocols such as tcp/ip. To use it, you need a device | ||
31 | that connects your Linux box to your amateur radio. You can either | ||
32 | use a low speed TNC (a Terminal Node Controller acts as a kind of | ||
33 | modem connecting your computer's serial port to your radio's | ||
34 | microphone input and speaker output) supporting the KISS protocol or | ||
35 | one of the various SCC cards that are supported by the generic Z8530 | ||
36 | or the DMA SCC driver. Another option are the Baycom modem serial | ||
37 | and parallel port hacks or the sound card modem (supported by their | ||
38 | own drivers). If you say Y here, you also have to say Y to one of | ||
39 | those drivers. | ||
40 | |||
41 | Information about where to get supporting software for Linux amateur | ||
42 | radio as well as information about how to configure an AX.25 port is | ||
43 | contained in the AX25-HOWTO, available from | ||
44 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. You might also want to | ||
45 | check out the file <file:Documentation/networking/ax25.txt> in the | ||
46 | kernel source. More information about digital amateur radio in | ||
47 | general is on the WWW at | ||

56 | help | ||
57 | DAMA is a mechanism to prevent collisions when doing AX.25 | ||
58 | networking. A DAMA server (called "master") accepts incoming traffic | ||
59 | from clients (called "slaves") and redistributes it to other slaves. | ||
60 | If you say Y here, your Linux box will act as a DAMA slave; this is | ||
61 | transparent in that you don't have to do any special DAMA | ||
62 | configuration. (Linux cannot yet act as a DAMA server.) If unsure, | ||
63 | say N. | ||
