Later this year; the Library is hoping to get a demo by May.

The first people to get them are older folks like you Tom, assuming you've 
been a library patron for years and years; I think Veterans are next in line, 
and then those who regularly participate on the 3976 net.

Those of us who are younger and have more computer ability are down the line, 
from what I understand.

hihi,
Steve, K8SP

    Lou:

I never thought of those NLS players.

Does anyone know when they are slated to come out, and what the elegibility
requirements will be for getting one?
If anything, one of those might be a good back-up, should my Stream stop
working for some reason.

The NLS players ought to be available soon as well and they, of course, will
be free.  Lou
