I stopped posting there quite a while ago.


I used to post short vids that I came across - and mention it in abpa and
RAM. I stopped, due to the numbers of people who didn't have
abma access asking for the videos to be emailed to them directly.


Others were having problems with multi part segments - missing one or more
segments - and asking for a repost or an individual email.



Which begs the question, whatever happened to Stanley Adelson, now there's
a guy too stupid to breathe.


If you're still lurking Stanley, suck fish ****.

I regularly use two news servers, one a local Australian one (Bigpond) and
the other is news20.forteinc.com. The Bigpond news server only shows a very
small subset of the postings, and is useless. News20 seems much more
reliable and I almost always see every part of a multipart posting. News20
has a monthly fee.

Bigpond also misses many of the parts of multipostings to this NG also.

News20 shows 302 parts and individual postings to
alt.binaries.multimedia.aviation since the 3rd March.

I use Cox Communications for cable tv and Internet. The multimedia site
usually has a bunch of files but they are of no value to me unless they are
something I can download and decode. People who use WinRar might as well be
sending their posts straight to the Deleted Items file. I've got the
software but never figured out how to use it. There have been some
excellent posts in Windows Media Format that I've downloaded and saved, Tom
