I have recently been told that the usenet news is being broadcast on a
subcarrier of the Turner Boardcasting System, and that some magic black box
could turn this into the usenet news that any unix system could pick up.

However, I have no idea what the box cost, who sells it, what it's baud rate
would be, or maybe how to build it. I will admit that i am new to the net, and
that maybe i have just missed this information...but it does sound like a neat
(that should be neat back there) like  to receive usenet.

Please post to this group, if I am off track, or if the box cost thousands 
of dollars, or if it hasn't been built yet, or if you would like to send 
me mail I would take that also.....

Another easy question I guess, why isn't anything posted to this group?
[or does this system just not keep them back that far?]

thank for your time
and may the farce be with you :-)
