In the following example I m getting a response from the server; however do I need to set ASCII or UTF8 encoding type ?

Dim objURI As Uri = New Uri(URL)
Dim wReq As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create(objURI)
Dim wResp As WebResponse = wReq.GetResponse()
Dim respStream As Stream = wResp.GetResponseStream()
Dim reader As StreamReader = New StreamReader(respStream, Encoding.ASCII)
Dim respHTML As String = reader.ReadToEnd()
wResp.Close()
