Hello Mike,
Yes you are connected, had the wrong call in my mind at first, oops.
I verified you were set as spider, which you were.
Callsign Type Started Name Ave RTT Link
VA3MW-7 NODE DXSP 2-Mar-2023 2345Z 0.13
2607:fea8:3d40:5d6:1f9b:8c5c:90b5:4cf7
So connection wise, you look good!
FWIW, the connect script I use for a lot of nodes is as follows:
timeout 15
abort (Busy|Sorry|Fail)
connect telnet xyzzy.net 7300
'login' 'wb3ffv-2'
Your crontab looks fine, unless I have missed something..
73's..
