In hindsight it might have helped if some kind of moderation were
introduced. The main shortwave.com website has been pulled but if you
look deep enough you will find the community feature is still there. So
are the online receivers if you check your remote radio client.

Bob, I want to thank you for a great program and adding the code to
support my Kenwood R-5000. I will continue using it until the external
database formats (HFCC, PTSW, Eibi etc.) change to the point that I
can't load them anymore. Wishing you good DX and hoping one day there
will be an announcement that SWLog is available once again.

I'll continue using it, I decided to not to be an "early adopter" of V5
so stuck with build 2411. Fortunately I still have a copy of the
installer, but I can't put it up on the web as Bob has requested that
all mirror sites be removed.

There is a new Yahoo group for SWLOG Users to facilitate their
discussions about the software program. Bob may have pulled the old
group and his software from his website but there is a need to exchange
info about the program. Go to SWLOG Users on the Yahoo Group page
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/swlog_users/) and join.

My guess(es) would be 1)to discourage spammers & 2)to discourage boneheads,
which, given the reason for pulling this absolutely excellent software,
website & yahoo newsgroup that's been around since what, the 90's, I'd say
are damn good reasons to finally have a moderated group. Besides, have you
read the crap that gets posted to this NG? By far the majority of the
postings have absolutely nothing to do with SWL at all & are posted by
juvenile minded boneheads trying to create ripples so they feel important.

Frank,

I suggest that you start a new thread in rec.radio.shortwave about this
new Yahoo users group. You will get a lot more visibility and signups.

Thanks for the tip, I've submitted my application. Worth mentioning in a
few other places as there are quite a few users out there!
