K1MAN PA means Pending Action, what happened Blapster ???
Lloyd:
What are you claiming as evidence for this claim, in your own words, "you are not supposed to be posting binary files in regular news groups..." ???? John "Lloyd" wrote in message ...

commander:
I am not asking what you think "usenet convention" is, I am saying it is more than ok to uuencode binary and post it... Show me an official document by a legal representative of usenet or go away...

John Smith wrote: Lloyd: What are you claiming as evidence for this claim, in your own words, "you are not supposed to be posting binary files in regular news groups..." ???? John It is against Usenet convention to post binary files to non-binary groups. That is why binary groups were invented. Binary files are usually very large should not be posted to regular news groups as these groups are archived forever. The binary groups are purged ever so often, so it isn't prudent to archive large binary files in regular newsgroups. |

Funny thing:
Amateur "control freaks" damn near reduced radio to where no one is left on the HF bands though there imposing ridiculous tests and rules... now they are right there at the door of the internet attempting to reproduce this miracle of destruction... .... get a clue, we were fine here before cheap computers, the un-washed-masses and amateurs!

Similar to informal band plans, by gentlemen's agreements no binary file posting on non binary file newsgroups. "Binary" newsgroups are usually marked "alt.binaries.whatever" |

Robert:
I am aware that it would be "tacky" to start hundreds of binaries flowing in the group here. However, a uuencoded/decoded binary of pics of an op, shack, equip, antenna, object or place of interest, etc only enhances the newsgroup experience... But don't even get the idea these old farts are fooling me, they couldn't uuencode a binary and post it if their lives depended on it... and even if the pic was a hot mama in a thong--they'd die before uudecoding/seeing the pic! grin John "robert casey" wrote in message ink.net...
