For those interested in using both CW Skimmer spots and DX cluster telenet spots in N1MM and other logging software in the "assisted" class, below is a URL to a PowerPoint by Pete N4ZR that shows step by step how to set up K1TTT's WintelnetX software to merge spots from the CW Skimmer (local telnet port) and two independent telnet DX clusters, displaying the spots interleaved together on the logger's telnet window screen.

With Sweepstakes coming up, I decided to get WintelnetX going here, in 
order to be able to merge regular cluster spots and Skimmer spots and feed 
them to N1MM Logger.  Since the process was a little challenging at first, 
I decided to document it and make my notes available to others who might 
find them useful.

I should emphasize that Dave, K1TTT bears no responsibility for the content 
of this guide.  I wrote it only yesterday, and sent it to him for comment 
just last night, but in view of the short time remaining, and with some 
preliminary indication that it was useful, I decided to put it out there 
and revise as necessary when Dave has time to read it and points out my 
mistakes.

The guide is at http://www.pvrc.org/~n4zr/Wintelquick.pdf . Please let me 
know if you find it helpful, and particularly if you see things that should 
be fixed.  The current release is version 1.1, with today's date.

73, Pete N4ZR
