In a way, I do have to agree, one really has to dig through
the documentation to figure out that the "Weatherlink for APRS"
is intended to be connected to a TNC.

I spent much time trying figure out what the difference was.
But I tend to read every manual before I decide what to buy.

And Davis support can get to be strange if you ask them a
question they didn't expect. I once asked for clearification
about how ID's are assigned *if* I added another station.
The reply was to call so they could review my setup?!?!?!?!
