- MAYBE a tiny bit of baking powder changes the alkalinity of the skin, so makes it crisp up better.
per the internet: ...the dry brine you apply will actually help the turkey skin retain moisture longer as it smokes. The baking powder also helps trigger browning reactions faster, giving the skin a jumpstart on browning. Finally, a quick rub with oil before applying the spice mixture will help slow down the escape of moisture from the skin.
On and under the skin - let it sit in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight (put it in some kind closed container like a pot or pan lined with alumninum or in an unscented bag...

*****Status Update***** Turkey was a hit, took 3.5 hours to cook with the last hour at a lower heat, since the time got pushed to later. All was good though, delicious, crisp and juicy
