That works if I issue a connect to N4PLZ-10 on the LAN frequency - so good 
so far.

Now, if I connect to the N4PLZ-8 node and then issue the TELPAC command I 
get the N0IA-10 telpac node which in on the LAN.  I think you configured it 
that way earlier.

What I'd like to have happen is for anyone to issue a CONNECT TELPAC on the 
LAN frequency, and the FPAC Linux would take it to the N4PLZ-10 Telpac!

Later, after WPs are all interleaved, then we can make LINUX FPAC smart 
enough to know that N4PLZ-10 is so busy that the closest Telpac node on the 
list is where the next connect Telpac goes!
