Presumably now that it is transmitting other data the last letter has been changed from F (for Fax) to B, to indicate this. I note with interest the repeated comments about good receivers. We should keep encouraging stations to improve their receive set ups, as some stations are certainly lacking in this area. Keep up the good work Mike - many of my QSOs are very much dependent on the other chap's receiver! 73s Dave G3YMC IO91PJ Bracknell sergeantd@compuserve.com http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/sergeantd
