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.

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?

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

Thank you very much, 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.

Well done, sir.

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
