Re: myTrack - Dial Data feed

A number of workarounds for other feeds all use the Signal version of the
Global Server, i.e. Dynastore, UMDS, MetaServer, OmniCom.  Andrew at
info@xxxxxxxxxxxx might be able to come up with a version of his MetaServer
that interfaces between MyTrack and the Signal version of Global Server.
MetaServer can accept Windows DDE and then feeds the Signal version of the
GS via TCP/IP.
