I'm seeing question marks

[Dumpster Baby]

I'm seeing a lot of question marks inside a black box, when apostrophes and quotation marks are in some of the text. Is this something with my Firefox browser or is it FR?

It's not that easy for me. I've got the night crew storming the patch panels trying to get it right.

Man, I have got to get a set up like you've got. Can that be ordered through Apple, or do I need to call Cisco?

Somewhere in the code, FR seems to be forcing “Unicode (UTF-8)” character encoding, but those apostrophes, smart-quotes, etc, are encoded with “Western (ISO-8859-1)” and the browser throws a placeholder for every character it can’t read.

If you force Western [Firefox: “View | Character Encoding | Western (ISO-8859-1)] the problem goes away, but for some reason, it is sometimes getting forced back to UTF.

Too late. It's a Heathkit OU-812, now discontinued.

Here the crew is loading subroutines to display a "pixel".

Why would you want to?

Only to get rid of the black diamond question marks.

FReep Mail Al Baby. You need to update the Calibration settings on your “Beeber-Type-Device.”

Make sure you set it on “STUNE” and not “ZOT!” while it re-calibrates.

I hope this helps.

Have fun!
