WAD. The packet window has a timeout associated with it. It is two seconds
with the multiport active. It sounds like you would like to monitor the
activity real time and not control the TNC. Is this correct? If this is the
case then a monitor only version of CTRL-B would work?

Nothing realtime at the moment. I don't see why I could not implement
something similar to CTRL-L (view LOG.DAT) to view the PacketLogFilename
(shown below) if it exists. For now you would have to view it on your own.
PACKET LOG FILENAME = xxxx
Set hat to a valid file name and the packet traffic will end up there.
