In order to post a jpg you would need to essentially convert it to
text. I think a program called uuencode does it.
Then it comes out looking like 15,000 lines of garbage to anyone
reading the articles here. It would make you a lot of enemies faster
than calling CQ on 14336.


Problem with the 336 crowd is that they almost never check before _they_
transmit up or down the band. And if they do check, they wait about 500
milliseconds before they figure the freq is clear. They have lots of
enemies themselves, myself being one. They have a very poor reputation
on 20.
