When OFF cross-connecting through the TNCs KA-NODE and digipeating through the callsign
specified in MYGATE are not allowed. When ON, connects through the KA-NODE and digipeating
from one radio port to the other are allowed.

Hbaud
n
(n = 300, 400, 600 or 1200)
All units
Packet
This baud rate specifies the rate of data exchange between the radio stations. The value of HBAUD
has NO relationship to the terminal baud rate specified with ABAUD. In order to communicate with
other Packet stations, the baud rate must be the same at each end of the link. As a general rule,
300 baud is used on frequencies below 28 MHz, 1200 baud is used on frequencies above 28 MHz.
FCC rules currently limit the maximum baud rate to 300 when operating below 28 MHz.
default 1200
KPC-1
/
KPC-2
It is generally no necessary to change the HBAUD setting when operating HF, since HF ON auto-
matically adjusts the HABUD rate.
default 1200
KPC-2400
It is generally not necessary to change the HBAUD setting when operating HF, since HF ON auto-
matically adjust the HBAUD rate. An additional HBAUD rate of 2400 is allowed for this TNC. The
2400 rate modem in the KPC-2400 has a bit rate of 2400 but a baud rate of 1200; therefore a set-
ting of HBAUD 2400 may be used at frequencies above 28 MHz.
default 1200/1200
KPC-4
default 300/1200
KAM
(n = HF 50 – 300/VHF 300, 400, 600, 1200)
This command works slightly differently in the
KAM
than the other dual-port type commands. The
HBAUD values allowed on the HF port are 50 to 300 inclusive, and the VHF port will allow 300,
400, 600 and 1200. Entering the command HBaud with a single parameter (
HBAUD 300
for in-
stance) will only set the HF port speed. To set both ports, you must use the form HBAUD
speedHF/speedVHF. To set only the VHF port, use the form HBAUD /speedVHF. 1200 baud HF can
be accomplished by connecting the HF radio to the VHF port. FCC rules currently limit the baud
rate at 300 when operating below 28 MHz.
