I'm not familiar with nwc. Is that a client or wallet?

I guess I'd says it's a bridge(?) . You'll need to set up Alby extension. In Amethyst, if you press & hold any zap button, it will bring up your zap settings. At the bottom is the nwc info. Tapping the little bumble bee looking logo should bring you to their page which will walk you through set up, then you bring that information back into amethyst.

Thanks for taking the time to explain. I'll give it a shot when I have some time to tinker

No problem! I'm no expert but I'll help when I can 😊
