KISS Protocol Traces

AX.25 KISS Protocol Traces.

The DCE/DTE column shows the character value in hex.
All characters in the KISS AX.25 header are bit shifted by 1 bit.
The last byte in the header has the LSB set to 1.

AX.25 Specification can be downloaded from
http://www.tapr.org/tapr/html/ax25.html

APRS Specification can be downloaded from
http://www.tapr.org/tapr/html/aprswg.html

The AX.25 KISS frame starts with C0 00.
The next 7 Bytes are the destination call sign. 6 Bytes callsign, 1 byte SSID
The next 7 Bytes are the source call sign. 6 Bytes callsign + 1 byte SSID
The next n*7 Bytes are the packet path. 6 Bytes callsign + 1 byte SSID
The 03 F0 are the start of the KISS AX.25 UI Data (The payload).
APRS Data following the 03 F0 isn't bit shifted 1 bit to the right like the header,
The KISS frame ends with 0D C0.

Decoding the 7th Byte or SSID of the Destination, Originate and Path nodes.
