[ARC5] Posting photos

[AKLDGUY .]

How can it be a global system function when images are coming
through on the milsurplus list? A day or two ago, I saw several photos.
Dave Stinson has also posted three test files: a photo, a sound file
(music with male singer), and an image of a circuit diagram (a typical
circuit from the 1950's showing a xtal oscillator driving a tube final
with pi network output and with power supply also shown). They all
came through fine here.

Now maybe the milsurplus admin has gone against qth.net protocol
and will have to reset back to the original setting, or maybe we can
hope that the qth.net people will allow images. At the very least,
someone (the milsurplus admin) knows how to do it.
