Dire Wolf is a software "soundcard" AX.25 packet modem/TNC and APRS encoder/decoder. It can be used stand-alone to observe APRS traffic, as a tracker, digipeater, APRStt gateway, or Internet Gateway (IGate). For more information, look at the bottom 1/4 of this page and in https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf/blob/dev/doc/README.md
Added feature to interlock channels with the same interlock number configured to share DCD and PTT signaling.
Useful with several setup types where 2 or more channels shouldn't interfere with eachother without the need to use TXINH and (external) connections and/or circuitry to accomplish similar goals.
For example when radios and/or antennas are shared, or RX/TX more than 1 mode on a single soundcard and radio (with 'virtual Y-cable' setup) using multiple Direwolf channels.
Channels on the same INTERLOCK number configured are sharing DCD and PTT signaling internally.
