Me personally, I'm not a fan of soundcard based TNCs... I'm of the opinion
that they emulate the old failed Winmodems of the late 90s, but you'll need
to look up how to wire your radio to it. You can find great used TNCs for 
around $25.00USD which is super cheap at flea markets and on eBay.

To access a bbs like this one, you'll want node software that can act as a
gateway for it. My URONode system will let you telnet into your bbs fine.
