I thought the call command couldn't directly address TNCs which are real
network devices without a utility such as net2kiss - to generate a KISS
stream which the kernel ax25 can talk to.  (and also so that call,
ax25d,listen, etc all work). 

Am I mistaken?   It would be wonderful if ax25d and call could now directly
access interfaces without net2kiss.    It looks to me like your TNC is
showing up as a hardware network interface, and the call command knows
nothing about it...
