- Last night I incorrectly said that WinQVT/Net supported compressed SLIP
- (my apologies to Stephen!). I checked the program manual and release notes,
- and I do not see any mention of cSLIP or VJC header compression. I was
- under the impression that I used to have the line "vjc=no" in my old
- QVT_TCP.RC file, but I was probably mistaken.
-
- CUTCP and KA9Q do support VJC header compression.
