Here's a potential solution to your problem.  I saved this response to help
explain why you want to get your own node number quickly.  Thanks to Adept
for this by the way!

Remembering my experience with those videos (and clearly they're still
useful,  despite the years that have passed since Avon released them), there's
one thing you might not be aware of:

That /999 address is a way to get things going quickly. But the next person
who  watches those videos will _also_ use that address, and if they check
before you do, their BBS will get those messages, not yours.

So you'll want to apply for your very own node number.

And I believe Avon still handles that, though you might end up on one of the 
other subnets, rather than the one he runs, as there are a couple of other 
people helping do the work of keeping FSXnet running.
