Hi Randy,
You can install DX Spider and run it without connecting to another
cluster. And it's free!
See http://www.dxcluster.org/
You'll have to install ActiveState Perl and about 1/2 dozen Perl
packages in order to run the software. I have had it running on
WinXP for about a year now (dxc.ad1c.us). It can listen on a port,
and the other computer can "telnet" into that port in order to "get the spots".
I think this might be your best bet. Do this well before the contest
to get it going.
