Duplicated my Agent installation in another directory. Changed the port to
120. Subscribed to one binary group, alt.binaries.sounds.radio.oldtime.
Multi-part binaries are, in at least that group, incomplete. Went back and
subscribed to a handful of groups to check the traffic/speed. While getting
articles for the groups I selected the server stopped responding (about
2030 on Friday). Repeated attempts to connect are failing. 

I'll try again later.
