Guys-
I have been using free and public access to newsgroup for about a
year or so, since attbi stopped providing the access.

I have been using newshosting.com. I was using usenetserver.com but their
servers were having a melt down one day and they couldn't give me an estimate
of return to service so I bailed. The only people I can tell you to avoid is giganews.
One gigantic customer service nightmare.

Hmmmm.
Dunno what you mean by customer service, but...

I've had GIGANEWS for about a year now.
Superbly satisfied with newsgroups... and binaries.

Speed, reliability, retention and completeness
have been impressive.
