Problems with UI frame reception

Hello, I'm working with UI frames and am having problems with receiving UI frames. I've written a simple send and recieve pair. The send software seems correct as monitored by the "listen" program. But the receiver is working as I expect. First, I have to call "connect" (in addition to creating and binding the socket) on the receive socket for anything to be received. And then it only receives packets from the socket I "connected" to. Which makes sense but I'm confused why I need to "connect" a receive socket? Second, the packets I do receive are missing the first byte. The first byte is cut off. I'm running kernel 2.4.19-rc2 with libax25-0.0.10. Any suggestions? Thanks. --James PS...I've hacked up "listen.c" code to do this but that uses SOCK_PACKET. It would be much cleaner to us DGRAMs but I'm having this reception issues.
