TNC21S 1200 BAUD AFSK PACKET RADIO CONTROLLER
For Radio Amateurs and CB-Radio users, we offer a tiny, low cost Packet Radio Controller for the common 1200 Baud AFSK modulation.
The Controller can be used with every FM-Radio CB, VHF, UHF and is simply connected to the speaker output and microphone input.
The TNC21 works with every computer which has a RS232 serial interface.
A Terminal Program for PC MS-DOS and Windows is included.
As The TNC21S Works With A Own Microprocessor, it can receive and store data and act as a digipeater even when the computer is off or when the terminal program is not active.
As The TNC21S is Fully EPROM Compatible To All TNC2 Clones, Other EPROMS / Firmware Like TAPR, DRSI, SMACK, Net-ROM, WA8DED, TNN, Nord><Link Etc. Can Be Used.
TNC21S is in use in thousands of amateur radio shacks and is also standard Packet Controller for CB 27 MHz However, there exists many commercial applications for the TNC21S as remote control, remote measuring and general wireless data exchange.
