What kind of AX.25 device are you having axcall use?  My experience is
that BPQ Ethernet won't do anything unless it actually hits an Ethernet
device, so I usually use a virtual machine for testing that way.  You
could probably set up an AXIP/AXUDP tunnel, but I've never tried it.

Hopefully someone else has better ideas than I do, because it *would* be
handy to have an easy way to connect on a virtual loopback device.
