JK>* FG2HQ:  This file echo is called a "Backchannel" area.  Backchannel
JK>areas
JK>work best if you are connected to a major FidoNet Star, FileGate HUB,
JK>or File mover.  You hatch a file in the FG2HQ file echo, and your
JK>UPLINK will deliver the file to _the next_ UPLINK in the chain until it
JK>reaches the FidoGazette HQ.    NOTE: Normal systems are not required to

JK>upstream so your best bet is to email or netmail your Article if you
