Apparently error 216 has to do with not finding the comport. I confirmed
this by changing the port specified in rtty.ini for the TNC.  I have a
byterunner pci card adding 4 ports for a total of 6 in the pc but running
WF1B in a dos window will not let me "see" the 4 extra ports. Com 1 and 2
are built into the machine and control the radio and the mmtty/fsk
interface. I intended to use 3 in MMTTY as the KAM emulator and 4 in WF1B as
the TNC port but I guess I'm back to square one. I see from the instructions
that this combo has been run before but it must not have used PCI cards.
Anybody have any further ideas?
