John,
"Packet" (not 'Packit') radio is a general term that doesn't always tell
exactly what you're going to be doing.
If you're merely wanting to hook up your computer to a TNC and do real-time
control of the TNC, to talk on the air, do the TNC controlling, etc, then any
terminal program should work... as long as you are NOT using a standard RS-232
ROMPack (which requires that the Carrier Detect be held hi in order for
incoming data to be passed along back to the computer).
Since OS-9 is an operating system that operates on several different, very
divergant, computer systems, you'll have to specify your hardware before we can
tell you much more.
