 Jim,

If you're using Linux (or windows for that matter), you'll probably get
better performance by just using Tom Sailer's soundmodem with a
soundcard (either PCI or external USB -- but a good quality one) rather
than trying to use 1980's-era TNC2's.  I have several long-running
production digipeaters running with my aprsdigi code and Tom's
soundmodems -- albeit all at 1200 baud.  I've played around a little
with 9600 baud but don't know enough to say anything useful.

See http://www.baycom.org/~tom/ham/soundmodem/ and
http://www.baycom.org/~tom/pcf/ptt_circ/ptt.html for the PTT circuit for
serial or parallel ports.
