 Typing to GARY COLEMAN, on 07 Jul 96, you said :

All you have to do is ask your feed to get the other echo, if your a point
then you ask area fix to do it. This is how I have my Pointmanager setup to
receive both echos and like I said before if I happen to read the first area
that's in my config file and delete those messages, those messages will be
missing from the second forsale echo most of the time. One or two messages
may still appear in the second echo but should I read the second area first
and then delete that group then there will be no messages in the first group
regardless, thus my premis why not just have one echo. It shouldn't be any
more difficult for you or anyone else to get the other echo..... Below is
part of PM.cfg file for getting the echos I subscribe to.
