[DXLog.net - Support] Antenna Server info

Thanks Chris, that would be a big help.  I'm presently using the direct 
connection and the configuration page in the Configure interfaces menu.  
That sort of works but the selections are made in reverse order to what 
is entered on the page.  I am presently filtering the MOAS output 
commands through an Arduino and using that to generate a display window. 
  Would be much better if it worked the way the Microham aux output 
interface used to work.

Prasad:  I also tried the native MOAS client using OmniRig.  I got it to 
work but had trouble with it disconnecting and hanging.  The native 
connection is solid.  A bit difficult to configure though.

HI all.

I'll try to make some example how to use it with MOAS board.
At JT5DX and ED8X we used custom Arduino mega board to control interlock 
plus antenna switching
MOAS works a bit differently, and you don't need to run it's client to 
use it.
Basic idea is to control it from xml config file which you load in 
antenna server, and just add different ID's to clients (DXLog.net sw).
Client will get antenna selector and controllers (4 square, stackmatch 
etc) based on config file definitions.
