To your downlinks?  It's debatable about whether it is up to
you, IMO you have to send both linefeeds and x'8d' to your
downlinks, no choice about it, if that's how you received 
them, because there is no technical reason for you to change
it.  However, since you have to change the SEENBY data, you
could say that the technical reason that requires you to update
the SEENBY line allows you to strip LF at the same time, because
you're writing out new lines.  There is NO reason for you to
strip x'8d' though.

The REAL problem with stripping x'8d' is that it is part of the
Russian (and other countries) alphabet.  Only a one-language
ignorant Australian would wish to delete x'8d'.  BFN.  Paul.
