Jeff,

I'm pretty sure this is the "one way configuration" that people have talked 
about.  From what I can surmise, DXTelNet takes over only the TX half of 
your COM port.  By looping the TXD to the RXD, DXTelNet shoots a spot out 
the COM port, which then is received by the same COM port (the RX COM 
handler being provided by NA).
