   I'm aware of AX.25 support for Synchronet, check their wiki and look for an

   I want to offer access to my Mystic BBS system rather than some rather dated   
   and unfriendly HAM software...but the trick will be figuring out how to do   
   so. I did start a conversation with echicken (see ref above) about what he   
   had coded for Synchronet. My hope is in time I will be able to work something   
   out that does the same for Mystic, it's early days.
