 26	  This is the protocol used for computer communication over amateur
 27	  radio. It is either used by itself for point-to-point links, or to
 28	  carry other protocols such as tcp/ip. To use it, you need a device
 29	  that connects your Linux box to your amateur radio. You can either
 30	  use a low speed TNC (a Terminal Node Controller acts as a kind of
 31	  modem connecting your computer's serial port to your radio's
 32	  microphone input and speaker output) supporting the KISS protocol or
 33	  one of the various SCC cards that are supported by the generic Z8530
 34	  or the DMA SCC driver. Another option are the Baycom modem serial
 35	  and parallel port hacks or the sound card modem (supported by their
 36	  own drivers). If you say Y here, you also have to say Y to one of
 37	  those drivers.

 39	  Information about where to get supporting software for Linux amateur
 40	  radio as well as information about how to configure an AX.25 port is

 43	  check out the file <file:Documentation/networking/ax25.rst> in the

 56	  DAMA is a mechanism to prevent collisions when doing AX.25

 60	  transparent in that you don't have to do any special DAMA
 61	  configuration. Linux cannot yet act as a DAMA server.  This option
 62	  only compiles DAMA slave support into the kernel.  It still needs to
 63	  be enabled at runtime.  For more about DAMA see
