    The .txt was downloaded from a WIndows PC, and copied from NOTEPAD and pasted to the C-Net Amiga BBS using ZOCTerm.

    I will be late posting this week due to vacation, but when I do I will resave the file in ANSI format in Notepad before posting.....

    Out of all the weeks I have posted over the last year, strange that it just came up.

    I read the transcript the other day and it was perfectly fine on my
    end. I'm using SyncTerm with CP437.

    Interesting. Still, anything I post programmatically I convert
    it to pure ASCII before it gets posted.

    Oh well, not a big deal, just thought I'd say something.

    The only thing I see on this android phone to comment about is that I sometimes
    see a large PLUS SIGN instead of the Call Area when a Call Sign is
    shown in the
    text he forwards for us to read

    I don't see a plus sign but I see other "garbage" in there randomly.

    So I'm not the only one saeeing this.

    If You Moderete this echo I am in big trouble.

    I am the moderator but no one's in trouble...

    That'll do it. LOL

    Has anything changed in your toolset doing this?

    I still appreciate you posting the ARN just the same.

    Don't mind you pointing it out at all....

    This week I saved notepad file as ANSI, if I see the issue again I will use your .ps script and see if I can get ZOCTerm to process it after downloading (It does support REXX scripting), so might make a good technical blog anyway.

    C-Net also supports post upload processing, so I might be able to find a utility to do it on the BBS side as well.
