For years I have used Agent for communicating with
rec.radio.amateur.antenna. My cable connection is with Brighthouse, who
connects with Earthlink for accessing the news groups.

However, on Dec 8 my connection stopped adding headers to Agent. The
msg at the bottom left corner of the screen initially says 'connected',
but then immediately says 'finished retrieving new headers', but no new
headers appear.

I finally found this way to access rraa through a Google entry. Can
anyone tell me what is wrong with the connection to Agent through
Earthlink for the newsgroups?

Set up a news account with news.aioe.org as news server. This is a free
news server and is quite quick in posting/downloading posts.

Even if you fix your present problems, never hurts to have backup.
