Connect to localhost WCF Webservice in compact framework application( Wince)

1)  Add url into hosts file pointing to the customurl you want to use instead of localhost( ie:  localdev.mycompany.com)

Update:  With visual studio 2015 the IIS config file is moved into your local  project folder.
Path is:     ProjectFolder\.vs\config

Edit applicationhost.config.

Edit site binding to look like:
 <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:59254:mycustomurl" />

2)  I then had to go into Windows Mobile Device Center and change the device settings -> Connection Settings -> This computer connected to:  Work Network.
