Walt Hi Walt, Some or most of the popular web browsers have a feature where you can use or view the web page offline. Look around in the menu of your web browser to see if you can find such a feature and turn it on. The browser will then store the contents of the web page on your computer so you can view it without going online. Good luck OM and 73, Jim AC6XG Thanks, Jim, with Richard C's help I finally downloaded all of Reg's great works from his web site. Reg's daughter, Jean, has posted her approval of our keeping her Dad's memory alive by continuing to use his web-page material. Walt |

![]() Thanks, Jim, with Richard C's help I finally downloaded all of Reg's great works from his web site. Walt I, too, wish to express my sadness at hearing of Reg's passing. Although I had only a single discussion with him, it was one of the more illuminating ones I've had. Walt, can you advise me of the size of Reg's works that you downloaded? Ed K7AAT |

Ed K7AAT Hi Ed, As the download process finished the count showed 3.0 MB. However, when I later entered his web page address separately, I found some additiional information that failed to come up in the download that took up 22,8 KB. This additional material contains detailed information about Reg the person, including his portrait, showing him to be a jolly, friendly and handsome English gentleman. Make sure you access this material. Walt |

That isn't large at all, in this day and age of huge audio and video files, so I will make sure I get the info, including the extra you mentioned. It sure pains me to hear of the passing of classic and exceptional hams like Reg. It is a sign of the aging ham population, I guess. Ed K7AAT |

What I know about Reg is he was one of those rare people with an extrordinary innate instinct for physical phenomena. I knew one other person with that level of understanding of things natural, and he won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1995. For me it was always a little bit of a strange feeling when Reg would contribute to a discussion on this newsgroup in which I was participating, knowing that among other things, he was a part of the greatest technological achievement of its time. An accomplishment which by any measure is still monumental. And that was when he was just getting started. We should all hope to leave such a wealth of achievement. 73, Jim AC6XG |
