I presently connect to Clearing Houz for FXSNet - if I wasnt able to run my own NNTP server and gateway to FTN, can I connect to yours (not sure
if that causes a complication with currently getting FSX from clearing houz).

You're more than welcome to pull a feed from the 21:1/10 HUB we have running in fsxNet that offers the gated FTN packets your BBS could read etc.

If you opt to pick this up please email me or netmail me when you have set up your end (check fsx-use.txt) and I'll enable your node at the HUB.
