How odd.  I'm on MH and CFCF is noticably better that CHRO (in fact
one week the CHRO signal was soooo bad the VCR couldn't get a good
sync signal onto the tape, and we had to watch Worf, playing a
small-town-sheriff, all sort of slant-wise ;-(.  Our channel 6 also
seems to suffer spill-over from CBC as well ("Tonight, on
STAAAAAARRRRR TREK: the Next Generation!: Phaser duel between
Enterprise crew and Romulans!  And in the midst of the action,
suddenly, out of another dimension, pops: the ghost of Wayne Gretzky!
He shoots! The puck passes clean through Picard with NO VISIBLE
EFFECT!"  Maybe they'll do the 20th century a favour and vaporise Don
Cherry some time ;-)

Since I don't have such expensive toys as SurroundSound, its absence
from the signal does not bother me in the least ;-)

  There is another SCI-FI series starting soon (other than ST:DSN).
  It is called Babylon 5 and I was wondering if anyone knows which

I know that SBK, the Boston Channel will be carrying Babylon 5 and Time Trax 
as it is going to be part of the PTN which is owned by Warner's, I think.  
However, I don't know if we will be able to see it due to syndication 
laws in the U.S.  I know that they also carry ST:NG and we don't get it.  
Does anyone know if any other channel on MH will be carrying Babylon 5?

Thanks,

In a word, ick.

My wife and I figured what the hell, we might as well watch it while
waiting for ST:DSN.  About half-way through, one of us was heard to say
"Man, I can't wait for this to end and DSN to start."

A friend had taped "Space Rangers" and ST:DSN; while fast-forwarding
through "Space Rangers" to get to ST:DSN, his nine-year-old son said
"Daddy, that's too violent."  When you tell while watching the show
through the scan lines and broken frames of fast-forward, it's pretty
violent.

In addition to grotesque gratuitous violence, the characters are worse
than usual (worse than ST:TNG's first season, worse than Battlestar
Galactica, worse than insert-your-least-favourite-sitcom-here) for a new
show.  Among other things, they're just too g***d**m f*****g noble to be
believed, to ignorant and close-minded to possibly be as imaginative and
quick-minded as they are said to be (by their boss, to the visiting
colonel from "Central"), and the "plot" was so tired and lame as to be
past pathetic and well into decomposition.  And there's more!

And we were feeling charitable since we were so psyched for ST:DSN.

About ST:DSN:  GREAT!  Usually when I psyche myself up that much - and I
was pretty psyched!  - I'm disappointed.  Not with ST:DSN!  I've got
some minor nits to pick, there were flaws, that's to be expected.  It
was great.  I may watch it again tonight!

As far as I know, only the one you mentioned is going to carry it. I'd
like to know what time/day SBK will air Babylon 5 and Time Trax and what
(if anything) they know about their respective plots.

Don't assume that the coax will shield all the network channels in the air.
Get a good cable, especially at the terminating points.

Hi there!  I'm still looking for comments on grayscale scanners
from people with hands-on experience, especially in the area of
OCR (text-recognition) software.  I'd like to know what scanner
you use, how it works (pros/cons), what software, its pros/cons,
and what you would do if you were purchasing again right now.

Also, does anybody know any good computer stores in the Ottawa
area (or GREAT ones in Toronto or Montreal) that stock a lot of
hardware (like handheld scanners!)?  All I seem to be able to
find around here is the Logitech (if that!).  Thanx!

All info received will be posted here!

It's a show about space cops according to the little info I've seen to date. 
The promos I've seen so far don't don't look to bad but who knows how it

Radio Shack used to sell a small VHF receiver which covers the aviation band.
I have used mine at the airport (in the terminal and over at Hunt Club and
River Road) to get in the picture on current take-off's and landings. The
range is poor but it is pretty cheap (around $30) and works well close to the
action.

Good time to go is around 4-6 p.m. weekdays when all the business types are
fleeing back to Trawna. You can find your way around the airport and park
under three of the four most common approaches although not all may be legal.

Ottawa will never have the appeal of my old stomping
ground at the west end of the Ramstein AFB runway. Nothing beats the sight of
a F-4E take-off in full afterburner except maybe a pair of same. I still
remember one I watched right at twilight some time in 1972.

Too bad the video quality on CFCF is so bad. I am willing to put up with
relativy bad (ie no surround) sound but I can't stand watching CFCF. BTW
I am on Rogers. I don't know if the reception MH folks get is any better.

You have taken them to the aviation museum haven't you?

Carp airport used to host the airshow, so it ain't that small, and has
pilot training, rental etc.  One of those guys'll would probably take
you up.  Try calling them and explaining what you want - a chance to watch,
and perhaps a ride.  Let me know what you find out, Gregory *really* wants
a ride in an airplane, and Carp seems the best bet.

clause, let me add some clarification.
"Filk" was originally "folk".  The first such tape was named "Folk songs
for folk who haven't been born yet".  Filk songs are mainly associated
with three topics: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and fans of those topics.
The name "filk" is said to have come from a misspelling in an SF conven-
tion's Program Guide.  As with most folk music, the singing is either
'a cappella' or with a stringed instrument (ie. guitar) accompaniment.
There ARE exceptions to this, however.
More detailed information can be found in the newsgroup 'alt.music.filk'.
For those who have access to FidoNet, there is the FILK echo.
Hope this covers all bases...

I'm looking for a pair of ladies' cross country
ski boots, size 8, that feature those three
little holes at toe, along with a pair of ski
poles.  Can anyone help me out?  Reply by email
or call 669-6608 evenings.

Thanks.
