We are encountering issue in displaying the content of news "nL4N1MQ0NB"

There is a "replacement" character in the news "nL4N1MQ0NB" output after RFA decoding. That seems a character from head-end that RFA unable to decode. Please investigate.

Suspects that the editorial input "剝" but RFA unable to decode.

Hello @hlai

The data content support team informs that the News 2K
data feed (N2_UBMS and PNACs) that the client is subscribing news data is a legacy
data source. It will be retired and end of life soon, the news data team cannot
commit a fix to this issue on this feed.

I suggested you upgrade the application to subscribe news data source to MRN via the OMM interface with Elektron SDK instead. You can find more detail regarding the MRN and Elektron SDK via the following links
