 Curt, so the way for me to go with this right now is out thru
a serial port to a TNC?  That will also be problematical -- my
laptop has only USB and LPT1 ports.  So, use a USB-to-serial
adapter -- but since i'm running Cygwin not Linux, i'm wondering
if Xastir will be able to do that... ?

I've gotten APRS+SA to work well with AGW but don't yet see how to configure xastir for same.  Thanks for any help here.
