Hello Waldek,
The RPi has one built-in serial port but in it's default mode, it only
supports TX / RX and GND pins. That won't help you for PTT. Now, what
you can do is invoke one of the RPi's alternative I/O mappings and at
that point, you have full access to the flow control pins (specifically
RTS) that most people use for PTT. Please note, the RPi is a 3.3v
device with limited current so you'll probably need a level shifter to
drive the PTT line on your radio.

Ps. In addition to considering Soundmodem, have you heard of
Direwolf? http://home.comcast.net/~wb2osz/ This soundcard TNC supports
is being actively developed, supports multiple parallel decoders for off
frequency signals, supports multi-bit correction, etc. None of those
times is true of Soundmodem. Oh yeah.. and it has RPi binaries!

When I have use soundmodem on my laptop with linux kernel 2.x ten years ago but driver soundmodem support PTT via RS-232 which working very well with my IC-W2A. But I don't know how to do this on RPI ?
