TNC-PI attached to a Raspberry Pi Computer

As you may not be aware, over the past year some of the Workshop attendees have built these TNC-PI units, have attached them to Raspberry Pi computers as shown, have installed the FREE Xastir software, and are now working toward adding GPS units and making their TNC-PI units and associated HT radios into fully functioning APRC stations.
