The loop antenna is worth the price of admission:-) I
suppose you could have singing cows for moo-ed music.

What picture? All I get is a line of text, and a sig file. I can't
reply to the original message, or see the page source. There is
something screwy with the way Radiobanter.com posts messages to usenet.

Works fine here. I'll attach it to this, see if it's visible now.

Yes, thank you. It came through OK. I see that you use Outlook
Express. I still use Netscape 4.78 to access newsgroups. It's a little
old, but I like the way it handles long threads.

Brenda e-mailed a copy, too.

I've forgotten how 4.7 worked for newsgroups...its been a long time ago.
But it reached the point of being outdated for handling the web.

Using T'bird 2.something here and it seems to do everything with no
thought required. yEnc, etc.

They seem to have taken a wrong turn somewhere with T'bird 3. Its
really klunky and confusing. I haven't messed with it lately (its on my
laptop) but I never could find the route to 'Subscribe to Newsgroups'.

Try Thunderbird 2.*, Mike, as a replacement to Netscape for mail and
newsgroups.

I have the latest Thunderbird installed on this machine, mostly for the Win
7 bootup (since it doesn't have Outlook Express for e-mail). I have yet to
make the NG's work on it. Es muy estranjo.

Using Pan 0.133 here. http://pan.rebelbase.com/ Simple to use for most
task, but has lots of features for filtering and blocking some folks if
you spend any time in groups frequented by trolls.

I have the latest release of Firefox and Seamonkey for browsing the
web. I've tried the newer newsreader software, and I just don't like it.

I tried Google Chrome, but had to uninstall it. The computer was so
unstable it wasn't funny.

Thunderbird 3.0.4 seems to work nicely for me for mail and for these
newsgroups, except I have yet to find out how to assemble a jpeg which
has been posted in more than one part. The first part gives a clear
image of part of the picture, the second et al just text/numbers.

I found it a little awkward to set up the accounts as I am using my old
ISP service (Demon, in UK) for mail to keep my original e.mail address
of some 20 years standing, but on a mobile G3 dongle account for the
fast connection. Works well once sorted out though.

Latest Firefox for everyday web browser, seems fine too.

I tried Google Chrome, it was an appalling mistake, never worked at all.
Endless imbranglements.
