Finally, someone who concurs with me! :-)

I tried to do some research on the subject of Kantronics TNC's having a
watchdog timer.   I discovered that Kantronics does sell a watchdog
timer for the KPC-1, KPC-2, KPC-4, and the KAM for $15.

I also found that the KPC-3 (Mini-TNC) and the Data Engine do have
watchdog timers.
