I apologize for the way my message SatPC32ISS showed up when posted to the AMSAT-BB.Any resemblance between what I composed in my Yahoo e Mail account and what showed upon the AMSAT-BB is strictly coincidental. All message formatting seemed to have disappeared. Does anyone know what caused that or better yet, how to correct the formatting issue ? Is ita Yahoo or AMSAT-BB issue ? Keith N4ZQ
Keith, The AMSAT BB seems to like double "enter" at the end of eachline as opposed to any/every other message system in the realworld. That's why I usually only post to Starcom-BB instead.I don't know why it is like that, but it is really irritating. Now, here is the same message with double "enters":

Bob,
The AMSAT-BB, by design, passes plain text only. Be sure you set your email program to plain text mode to ensure that any special formatting characters are not sent.
Please remember that the Starcom-BB is not an alternative to the AMSAT-BB. It's a private club designed to stroke the owner's own ego, not a resource for the entire amateur satellite community. Posting here ensures that everyone in the worldwide amateur satellite community will see your messages.
