[HamGateNJ] KY2D Intro from Morristown

[Charles J. Hargrove]

I would suggest a second RF port on the NENJ link on 220. Then after
some things are updated at W2LI, a setting can be made to show you in
the destinations table. WB2ONA and N2KGC are working on the W2LI issue.
As Dan mentions, Outpost is an excellent program to use for messaging
on any bbs on RF or telnet.
