[Dxspider-support] re Installation Questions

[Roger Parsons]

If I understand correctly, and I'm pretty sure that I
do, the X1-J4 node can be set up so that connect
requests to the DX cluster are directed to the tnc
serial port. I think I have it set up that way. I've
hesitated in actually connecting DXSpider until I'm
sure everything is correct, as the radio/tnc are at a
remote location (with terminal server to provide the
tty port), and I won't be able to get there before the
snow goes in another month or so.
