The base note is a query about why ARC files may be corrupted, and
what FTP sites there are for only Atari software.
[Dave Small: Emulation is the sincerest form of flattery!]

I know of no sites that have ONLY atari-ST software, but here's one...
FTP 131.104.96.1, as anonymous, and you can FTP download to your heart's
content.

If your MAIL an  INDEX PROG-A16   command to LISTSERV@UOGUELPH
(Note do NOT mail to PROG-A16@UOGUELPH !!), you can tell which files
are which.   You can also request the files by mailing
GET PROG-A16 yy-nnnnn     commands to LISTSERV@UOGUELPH

Best of luck.

As for your ARC problem, there are a number of things that could corrupt
an archive (curious, though, that you see such a regular error as that)
You did not give enough details:
1. Where do you do the UUD-ing?
If on the host then:
2. When transferring to the PC, do you tell the host to send BINARY?
3. Are you un-arc-ing on your PC or on the Atari?

And so on and so on.   I'll be glad to help, but need more details.

[Gee those wuarchive.wustl folks must be B U S Y!]

I make no guarentees about the quality/quantitiy, or even presence of
ST software at these sites ('cept my own of course), so don't flame me.
On the other hand, info about new sites, or concrete info about any of
the above no longer carrying ST stuff (Like SSYX) would be appreciated.
OK?
