Great to see your interest in joining WWIVnet!  I just saw your email to me on
my BBS this morning on adding your system to WWIVnet.  I just completed it a
few minutes ago and replied to you (which I believe went to Eagle's Dare).  You
might have your email forwarded on my BBS.

Anyway, your node is @129 and please email me at mark at weather-station.org
for your callout.net password (for polling my @1 node).
