[WWYC] The honed YM Node (it's a curvy thing).

Ah, after a day or so of tweaking things have finally fallen into
place. There seems to be a fair amount of interest in the node, so
went ahead and fixed it up.

You are now able to connect either via telnet to ke9r.com port 8000,
Or via a web interface at: 	http://ke9r.com/ymnode/connect.cgi

The node is connected to N6WS and receives both DX and Stateside spots,
however, any local spots are firewalled. Announcements are also kept
within the cluster, so basically, what you say or spot on the YM node
stays within the YM Node.

This is nice because we can get on, spot each other, spot ourselves,
or spot other DX with our own comments. You can also use announce as
a chatline without bothering anyone else. So far it's been a very nice
place for WWYC members to congregate and socialize. The IRC room is
also very good, and would suggest it if you haven't gotten on it.

So -- GET ON! Play around. Seriously. This isn't your fathers packet
node. You don't have to sit idle and read bulletins all day. Log on,
spot your RFI'ing toaster or another WWYC lid splattering all over
three bands. Use announcements and bogus wx spots. Enjoy it.

The webpage is at: http://ke9r.com/ymnode/

Hope to see you there. If we can find you, we will bother you to logon.
