[Dxspider-support] Add IP address tp PC16

[Anthony (N2KI)]

In stead of reprogramming, consider this idea.  It does not cover all 
bases but its close.

Would it not be easier for everyone to implement the "registration 
required" mode?  When a station asks to register, the sysop should 
verify the authenticity of the request by sending an email to that which 
is listed on QRZ.  If a station is not listed on QRZ, well they should 
be.  If the email is verified and the request is authenticated, the 
station is registered for use on the node.
