    ATTENTION IMPORTANT NEWS STUFF BELOW.  Now you can have the list
    EMAILED to you EVERY MONTH!
    Published monthly at Marquette Michigan, the land that time forgot.   
    Every Effort is made to keep the list accurate, however due to constant
    changes in uplink schedules, the occasional typo, or brain burp, the 
    author is not responsible for hair pulling sessions from users who set 
    their VCR to tape a feed without verifying it themselves first.

    If I missed someone, let me know!
    Many of these fine folks are members of the WILDFEEDS WORKERS
    MAILING LIST.  In the past we encouraged the Internet TVRO community at 
    large to send us their wildfeed finds. This is no longer the case.  Since 
    we have a very specific requirement for data format, and prefer that the 
    finds be checked against the weekly master list that all members receive, 
    we ask that if you want to help, and ARE a dedicated feed finder you join 
    the workers list. If you wish to become a participating member, write me 
    for details.  All members are expected to provide help with the list, but 
    the membership requirements are easy to meet.  In exchange, you will 
    receive a special workers list about once a week, and the best wildfeeds 
    information on the net.  (Members DO get a lot of EMAIL) I can be reached 
    at:  
    
    flash@iceware.com 
    The Wildfeeds Workers List Administrator is Mike Brown, 
    vidiot@vidiot.com, you may also write to him for info.
    Please do not send unsolicited feed information just because you find 
    something that is not on this list, it is very likely we already have it, 
    as we have dozens of folks scanning the skies who are list members.
    EMAIL SUBSCRIPTIONS!
    Write to satlists-request@fnl.orn.com
    If you can't get in, usually you have spelled something wrong.  If
    you need help, EMAIL:  flash@iceware.com
    LOPEZ is still offline.  Do NOT write to:
    
    flash@lopez.marquette.mi.us  for any reason it will only bounce on
    you.
    You can find the list also at:
    http://nmia.com/~roberts/robert.html
    Click on "GARY'S INFO FILES".  You will find the list there by the third 
    of every month.
    Thanks to Scott Barnes for writing the entry/sorting/checking/reporting
    software that is used to prepare this list, which corrects
    several problems we had in preparing the list.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------   
 
    
    About the format of the list:
    This version is in two forms:  
        
         1. Sorted by Name  Sent as part #1
         2. Sorted by Time  Sent as part #2
    MF means Monday Through Friday
    (5x) means a block of five shows fed in a row
    (New) means first run episodes (and possible season reruns)
    (Old) means syndicated run.  These are shows from previous seasons
    (Clean) means NO COMMERCIALS. These may have the commercial space
            cut out, OR may have black spaces where commercials go.
    (Sec) means SECONDARY AFFILIATE, exclusively used with UPN shows
    (UPN) means primary UPN feed, the one with the ICKY LOGO.  Tape
          the (Sec) feed if you can, and try for a (Clean) feed if
          available.
    ((((( IN STEREO )))))
    We get asked again and again, BUT it is not possible to list audio 
    subcarriers.  This has been discussed at length, and it would just add 
    another potential for innacuracy to the list, and take up megabytes of 
    unnecessary NET bandwidth.  *ALL* network subcarriers are stereo 6.2/6.8  
    (NO MONO FEED) with 5.8/6.2 used in some rare instances on syndicated 
    feeds, like T1/05.   
    Paramount on T1/03, and UPN on T1/19 use 6.2/6.8 for stereo, and
    5.8 for the mono.  WB uses this same setup, so you will need to store
    TWO settings for G4/07 if you tape any WB shows (So far we have found
    nothing on WB worth taping)
    It really makes no sense to take up a field in the list, as well as
    megabytes and megabytes of net bandwidth, when stereo transmissions are
    not that hard to figure out on your own.
       1.  They always follow the above conventions
    
       2.  In just about every instance, they are listed on the slate prior
           to the show starting.  Paramount does not list their frequencies,
           but we know they ALWAYS use 6.2L 6.8R 5.8M.  Paramount sometimes
           does a LEFT-RIGHT-CENTER-SURROUND test prior to the start of their
           syndicated shows, so you can verify you have set it right (6.2L 
           6.8R)
    
       3.  If you do any amount of wildfeed chasing, you will program your
           receiver with the correct freqs for those channels you tape.
  ALL TIMES ARE EASTERN (TOTZYWEN) (The Only Time Zone You Will Ever Need) 
  When submitting material to the list, please USE EASTERN TIME.  Even 
  California based uplinkers like 4MC use Eastern Time as their standard
  time.  We recommend you set your Satellite VCR to Eastern Time, not only
  for reporting feeds, but also for taping your favorites.
  We use 24 hour Military time at the request of the majority of our users.
