Hi Jean Marc,

I don't know how long it took to download the file since the station is automated and I have PSGS set to download every file from the satellite :)   I usually get all new files in about 5 mins worth of a pass, easy to keep up.  It's quick, especially when all users have good operational stations and keep the queue moving along.  

I find, and think most will as well, downloading to happen much faster than uploading.

Jean Marc, I got your file no problem.  I'm guessing it's a self photo?
