[Ham-Computers] Head Scratcher!

[W8DBF D.B. Fischer]

Jeff,

He is 'not' sending a web page or any portion of one. It is supposed to be 
just a .jpg image.

But why would the actual .jpg file name always be identical? I have never 
seen this and if one saves a new image, it overwrites the previous with an 
identical file name! This just does not make sense to me Jeff.
