OTHER FUNCTIONS 11

• Read the instructions supplied with your TNC carefully

before attempting packet operation with the transceiver.

• Pin t AF OUT is for 1200 bps operation only. This pin

cannot be used for 9600 bps operation.

• Over modulation may degrade signal quality. If you ﬁnd

that many transmissions are failing, re-adjust the modu- lation level.
