1. Compression Tests (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 9 Oct 1996 04:42:42 -0700 (PDT); How do you do a compression test? Do you need extra stuff (money!). If so, I'd have to wait till next month. Also, could that be a power-loss problem? Eithier way, what causes it? BTW, has anyone be; /html/triumphs/1996-10/msg00361.html (7,406 bytes)
