I got the $4 free news service from teranews, but can't for the life

get it to work, it says connection with server terminated. They have
no 800#. What other free or cheap Usenet server should I get?

What newsreader are you using ? I use tera , and occasionally it will
drop me , but reconnects right away . At one time there was quite a lag
between posting and posts showing up on my newsreader (Outhouse Express) ,
but they show up almost instantly now . Well , except at rec.guns , where
most of my posts *never* show up ...

Learning keeps
you young !

Using OE. Guess I need to get my geek over here and configure me something
into the 21st century. Had to go back to my original isp, which is a LAN
cable switch to the other router. Until Feb. 28, when it will die.
teranews customer service isn't the best. And I've been sick with the crud
for four days. There is just too much to learn, and I am busy doing
hundreds of other things.
