These are Adobe PDF versions of our FBC newsletter.
The October 2004 and later files have been modified to display on a computer screen in order to reduce download time.
This listing includes only the newsletters prepared by the editor.
To help you estimate download time:
In my experience POTS, Plain Old Telephone Survice, downloads approximately 17 MB per hour.
My present cable service downloads over 900 MB per hour. In some places cable is also available at several lower speeds at reduced prices.
DSL is faster than POTS but also apparently comes with several speeds. I don't have any experience with it.
