I know you have probably built a relationship with Dave Hatch by
now, but have you considered getting your mail from another Hub ?

Most of the traffic in AV_Tech seems to come from TML, PCUG,
Adelaide and Brisbane. I get the PCUG, Adelaide and Brisbane mail
from The Eagles *** THREE *** days before it appears on TML ! True !

It seems to take 3 days to move from the 712 net to the 711 net.

Perhaps you should have a talk to Terry Harvey at Eagles and see if
you can get your mail from him. If you are interested, I could give
you his voice number.

Cheers, Brenton
