Windows TNC Driver Version 2.00

WINTNC Ver 2.00 is a Windows multiuser/multitasking multiport Packet Terminal Driver program for use with multiple KISS mode TNC's attached to your IBM-PC/clone, software modems using the AGWPE interface, such as the SoundModem by UZ7HO or DireWolf and even KISS mode radios such as the BTECH UV-Pro and VGC VR-N76. The software is 32 bit so works with modern 32/64 bit Windows 7/10/11 systems.

PLEASE NOTE : THIS VERSION NO LONGER SUPPORTS THE BAYCOM MODEM AS THE BAYCOM DRIVER I WROTE NO LONGER WORKS ON WINDOWS 7/10/11

The software includes many features not often found in other TNC driver programs including :

• integrated Personal Mail System with FBB compatible compressed forwarding
• inbuilt multiport node
• YAPP file server accessible from node
• conference server accessible from node
• split screen or full screen display
• 1000 line scroll back buffer with search facilities
• YAPP and ASCII file transfer facilities
• connect directory
• directory browser with comprehensive file viewer
• file, notepad and clipboard editor
• UUencode and UUdecode of files
• 7PLUS encoding and decoding of files
• script file support for automatic MD2 & FBB 5 character password BBS entry
• C_FILTER with MD2 & FBB 5 character password support
• M_FILTER with automatic extraction and decoding of 7plus incoming messages
• external PMS mail servers including REQDIR. REQFIL & REQMSG
• external PMS program servers including ADVENT (the original Colossal Cave adventure)
• simple to use yet sophisticated script language for automated operation
• timed execution of script files
• locator calculations
• configurable sound events
• FBB header broadcast support

plus many more !

The software is fully multiuser/multitasking which means that more than one person can be active in any part of the system at once whilst you are still using the software for your own purposes.

Download and install the program from the link below. I have tested this on both Windows 10 and 11 and it seems to work OK.

I no longer have any radio gear or TNC's to test it with so I would like to know if anyone manages to get it working. It should, but I can't check myself. 

As this is the first release after conversion, I am sure there may be a few things that have missed my testing and don't work so please let me know if you spot anything that doesn't seem right.

To configure the AGWPE interface for use with the SoundModem by UZ7HO, please refer to my other page here.

To configure your UV-Pro or VR-N76 radios, please refer to my other page here.

There have been a lot of updates since releasing version 2.00. Check out all the pages in the left hand side bar or download the latest version 2.12 from here.
