On Saturday, I will be traveling down to Cape Canaveral to see the launch
(I hope) of MER-A, the first Mars rover to be launched this year. For
those who want too, I will be listed as KD4SFD-14. If it goes off at 14:05
EDT or about 45 minutes later, I will have videos of the launch on my web
site. I'll announce when it is up.
Here is my setup:
2001 GMC Sonoma Pickup, with 2 travelers (Me and my retired Dad)
Icom T8A radio (Thanks Don WB5EKU for the manual!)
Mirage BF-35 power amp about 35 watts out
6/2/70 antenna (to be replaced on a trip Monday to AES Orlando)
Garmin Etrex
Kantronics KPC-9612+
Compaq laptop 380 MHz Win 98
Winaprs 2.7.2 with hopefully all the TIGER maps for every county I will
travel through.
1 video camera
1 35 MM camera w/500mm lens
Caffene
HP Laptop 1.4 GHz with XP
GPS Enabled Nextel Phone
M$ Streets and Trips 2003 for finding good lunch spots.
Kenwood TH-F6 wt for listening on the local repeaters (and talking!)
If successful this will be my 5th launch and 6th launch attempts. I had
planned to see the shuttle take off but.... When it does go off again, I
will be there!
I will hopefully see it from the area around SR 50 and US 1.

"In plain english" - he needs to install a font to his system. One
that's called an OEM font. Check his font lists, I bet he's only got
proportional or TrueType fonts installed/enabled.

This morning I received an email that had a file attached that Norton
flagged as containing the w32bugbear.mm worm. This email came in on the
address that I use for my ham mailing lists. I have no way of knowing
which list it came from as the header is spoofed.
The infected file is named REGISTRATION.PDF.EXE
If you have extensions hidden you could be at risk.
For information on the worm goto
http://www.symantec.com
or
http://www.cert.org/
The spoofed header is below.

There is a possibility that a member of this lists computer is infected
with the W32/Bugbear virus. The member might also be a subscriber to the
Ten-Tec list.
I suggest that all list members run a scan with the latest virus
signatures.

Whomever it was, it was probably someone who originally GOT
the message that went:
>Wade: (and others as I've cc'd the Tentec list)
>
>I understand your situation. As to separate RX and TX lines to the
>transverter, keep in mind that the SSB and DEM require about 100

It was listed as from Robert & Linda McGraw, but I probably think it
was from someone they SENT a message to.

This may be a good time to note that Windows normally hides file extensions
by default.
To show extensions in Win 98 go to My Computer>Tools>Folder Options>View
and select to "Show all files" under the "Hidden files" choice and make
sure the box next to "Hide file extensions for known file types" is
unchecked.
The files described recently have been of the type:
Registration.pdf.exe
If you have extensions hidden you would see Registration.pdf
When you click it you are infected.
Some one else will have to comment on the other later versions of Windows.

Not true for OE. I have some extensions hidden, including exe. But
OE still displays the ENTIRE filename as the attachment.
Now would probably be a good time to remind everybody who uses
OE to go to tools-options-security and set the flag that starts out
"Do not allow attachments..."

In Winxp goto Control Panel-Folder Options-File Type tab. This is of
course if your in Classic View. If not than Performance Maintenance-See
Also-File Types- And than File Types tab. The See Also Category is in
the upper left hand corner. :-)
