AWlen "n" Default: 7
Mode: All Host: AW
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
"n" - 7 or 8 specifies the number of data bits per word.
________________________________________________________________________________
The parameter value defines the digital word length used by the RS-232 serial
input/output (I/O) terminal port and your computer or terminal program.
AWLEN should be set properly by the PK-900 Autobaud routine. Still you may
want to change the ASCII word-length at some time to accommodate a new terminal
program you wish to use.
For plain text conversations with the PK-900, an AWLEN of 7 or 8 may be used.
For binary file transfers and HOST Mode operation, an AWLEN of 8 MUST be used.
The RESTART command must be issued before a change in word length takes effect.
Do NOT change AWLEN unless the terminal can be changed to the same setting.

Ax25l2v2 ON|OFF/ON|OFF Default: ON/ON
Mode: Packet Host: AV
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - The PK-900 uses AX.25 Level 2 Version 2.0 protocol on Port x.
OFF - The PK-900 uses AX.25 Level 2 Version 1.0 protocol on Port x.
________________________________________________________________________________
This command allows the selection of either the old (version 1) version of the
AX.25 packet protocol or the current (version 2.0) protocol on each Radio Port.
Some implementations of version 1 of AX.25 protocol won't properly digipeat
Version 2.0 AX.25 packets. Most users run AX.25 version 2 but this command
allows returning to the older version if necessary for compatibility.
Some users also prefer to run AX.25 version 1 on HF and version 2 on VHF. The
default is to run version 2 on both Radio Ports, but it can easily be changed.
