Fred,
   Are there any at all? The frequency book I have is dated 1992 and 
I wondered why it was not 1994 or 95, perhaps this is the reason why. At this 
point I hav'nt bought any software of equipment but I was thinking of this 
MFJ1214PC, or this AEAfaxII multimode-receiving system, but I have also seen 
this PC HF Facsimile, and as well as some code readers, software called 
Personal Code Explorer from an outfit called Microcraft. All of these items 
sell for about $100-150 bucks which is about all I want to spend in just 
startin out into this. Do you 
(or anyone else reading this) have any opinions on these items? Is 
there a shareward program I could try out, rigged via a serial cable to 
computer? The stuff Universal Radio sells is more than I want to spend 
starting out, espeacially if the newswires are few and far between now days.
   What about these Fax pictures are they onto satellite now or can 
you still pick up any of this traffic? Being in Oklahoma City, away from the 
coastal areas, what do you think I could really pick up around here? I know 
there's some code moving through the waves but it is probably amateur 
traffic. Thus far I have only bought a couple of books so I have not wasted 
too much on this yet, perhaps I will change my mind if it looks like there 
would'nt be much to pick up around here. Still, since I'm getting something 
over the waves here it would be interesting to know what it is. Thanks, type 
to ya later.
