No POST routines are necessary for the SprINT.

Check the CW messages - or if you put INTERNET SPRINT in as the contest,
most everything should be already setup.  My logcfg.dat file looked
like this:

MY CALL = K7RAT
MY NAME = NINZER
MY STATE = ORE
CONTEST = INTERNET SPRINT
DISPLAY MODE = COLOR

Then the normal stuff to setup the CW output and that is all!  The
exchanges are all setup from the MY NAME and MY STATE parameters.
