While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

<< Hi All I wish to subscribe to the AOL newsgroup sci.astro.amateur, as
well as MAPUG
Can any one give me the URL address ? TIA
John Barker >>

John,

sci.astro.amateur is a is a Usenet newsgroup, which isn't associated with
AOL, nor does it have a URL. You have to have "newsgroup reader" software,
which your ISP can hopefully provide you. Then your ISP has to make that
particular newsgroup available for you to subscribe to.

Certainly one solution is to sign up to AOL, click on the "Internet" icon,
select "Newsgroups" from the menu, and then start choosing all the newsgroups
you want to subscribe to.

I hope this helps.

John
