Hi Bob et al

I've been experimenting connecting NA to a DXCluster node
using Telnet - K1TTT's WinTelnetX 4.11
The configuration below works successfully for NA 10.54, so
I guess should be OK for NA 10.55, which I have not had time 
to try yet.    I'm using 2 PCs networked with NA, and a third PC
running WinTelnetX under W98.    For simplicity the set-up
below uses COM1 on the Windows PC,  and COM1 on one of the 
networked NA PCs.   The DXCluster node I use (GB7BIG) is 
running AR-Cluster software.
---------------------------------------
Connect together the COM ports on the 2 PCs (1 x NA PC
and 1 x WinTelnetX PC) using a serial cable where pin2 at one end
connects to pin3 at the other end and vice versa.
-------------------------------------------
NA 10.54          
Under  'Config', select f4   Serial Port Setup :
port           adr     baud     device   IRQ
COM1     3F8     9600      TNC       4

Select f5   Equipment Configuration :
TNC Type :   LOCAL
----------------------------------------------
WinTelnetx 4.11

COM
Select - Add new   ComPort :
Port    COM1
Baud   9600
Bits      8
Parity   None
Stop bits   1
Flow    RTSCTS

Name    COM
Is TNC   False
Buffer    32000
Keep alive time  0
Port Data Type  CT User
Dupes     0
CR/LF     1

TEL 
Select - Add new     Network -  Connect :
Host name or IP     marnet.dns2go.com
Port number           23

Name      TEL
Is TNC     False
Buffer       32000
Keep alive time   0
Port Data Type    Cluster User
Mycall       INET
Antiloop Px    <
Dupes            0
CR/LF            2

Prompt      call:       Response    GM3WOJ 

Add - Routes       COM <-> TEL    2-way
--------------------------------------------

Hope this helps anyone who's trying to do the
same thing - the advantage of this over DXTelnet
is that only 2 pieces of software are running.
