   METRO PCjr's LISTING of NATIONAL PCjr USER GROUPS AND BBS's

 (As published in the May 1989 issue of the Metro PCjr Journal)

     This list of PCjr user group has been prepared to facilitate
contact among PCjr user groups nationwide.  It has been assembled
from  lists  downloaded  from  BBS's,  jrNewsletter,  The  Junior
Report,  Computer  Shopper, and mail received by the  Metro  PCjr
Users  Group.  It is only a first attempt and  probably  contains
errors  in  the  form of omissions and  the  listing  of  defunct
groups.   Groups  with  whom recent contact  has  been  made  are
identified  with  a (V) following the group name.  For  the  most
part,  "recent"  means  we've been in contact  in  the  past  few
months. We are less certain of groups for which little detail  is
shown or only one source such as "BBS list" is given.
     The  purpose  of the list is twofold:  list what  is  known,
obviously,  and seek additions/corrections.  Please send  any  of
those   to  PCjr  User  Group  List,  11732  Cherry  Grove   Dr.,
Gaithersburg, MD 20878.  Thanks.

Symbols: (X) = on Metro PCjr Newsletter Exchange list (we may not
necessarily receive a newsletter in exchange, however)
Unk. = Unknown
SIG = Special Interest Group (part of larger PC umbrella
organization)
Source - "newsletter received" indicates Metro PCjr received a
newsletter in 1989, so group must exist
