Hi Alberto, you must have got a pension increase !! The popups are not
really a problem certainly on your site, but I am always a bit suspicious of
"slime" (snail trails) left when you exit a site. I guess none of us
purchases anything from these vendors so it is probably a good deal for
amateurs. QSL has got very big and does not seem ever to delete anything,
which is good in some respects. I know of an amateur who died 4 or 5 years
ago whose web site is still available (It is very useful) It was probably
great when exeryone was on dial-up, but now everyone (but me) seems to on
high speed they expect faster service and I think that servers have been
robbed from dial up to serve broadband in some instances, because the delays
are well beyond what I normal accept.
Winrad is running fine. I must turn my attentions to Spectran and "gaps"
again soon, I think it must be a feature of interaction with the Delta 44
board. I will run it on another couple of cards soon in simplex mode.
Thanks and Best Wishes de Alan G3NYK
