The current implementation of cba.internet as shipped with the 4.0X versions
of CLX works great with this site. See the section in the admin manual on
how to configure the cba.internet script.

Basically, you rename the script to cba to replace(rename/mv) the default
script that is designed for local callbook queries to some other name.

Remember to setup the target host at the top of the cba.internet script.
Point it to blues.oh7rba.ampr.org in this case... port 1235
