Nothing wrong with moderate use of uuencoding in newsgroup, end of story!


That isn't true, "John". It isn't the end of the story. You really
need to check out the facts before you make such statements.

Go control freak on 160-80-75-etc... your false information is NOT welcome
here...


"Here" meaning where your computer happens to sit? It seems odd that
you view someone who attempts to enlighten you as a "control freak" I'm
not required to go anywhere, especially when the order is issued by some
anonymous fellow who may or may not even be a radio amateur.

that is what ham radio has become, it has no place here on the
internet...


Amateur radio is about control freaking on 160-80-75-etc ? I don't
believe you.

Excellent, in the future I shall post a uuencoded test pic, tell me what the

a free URL to a website on hawaii!



"John":

I'm amazed that you are seemingly unaware that almost every e-mail program on
the market decodes UUE automatically. The fact is, you shouldn't be doing so
in a text newsgroup.
