[amsat-bb] Message Format

[Paul Stoetzer]

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.

73,

Paul, N8HM
