I've just installed C-News and NewsGrazer on a NeXTstation, but I don't
yet have a news feed.  (I do have a UUCP feed, but as far as I know, it
will not supply me with news articles unless I pay more money!)

Does anyone know of any UUCP "test sites", or some way of testing that my
configuration can properly receive news articles?  Maybe a public access
UUCP site with a dial up line in the 408, 415, or 510 area code?!

If not, I'd appreciate if a knowledgeable person can give me some tips
via e-mail, on what I can do in the meantime to test everything out.

Thanks,

Eric
