The Forum will be transferring to a new service provider tomorrow, and following the necessary DNS change, we have to allow several hours for the new address to propagate around the net. There almost certainly be a period where your browser is unaware and will try to use the old path, and cached copies of old web pages may still be retained. I would suggest that just for tomorrow, we all refrain from posting, as its quite likely that posts made during the changeover will be lost. Everything else, all the historic threads and photos should be fine. I'd leave it till Wednesday then post away on the new host. The migration is being professionally handled so should go smoothly, and on Wednesday no-one should notice any difference.
"Why?" you might ask. Well, running and funding a forum is no easy task and after three years of sterling service to Retro R/C enthusiasts all around the world, our Ron is taking a break and Mike K is taking up the helm. Newcomers might not realise that Ron stepped in the very day we lost singlechannellersreunited, creating the forum from scratch as his first ever PHP project - a daunting task in itself - and began the steady rebuilding of all the historic and technical work that had been lost. It has since grown into not only the foremost site for Retro R/C but also a highly respected technical repository for constructors, restorers and collectors. Its also one of the friendliest forums on the net - there are very few others where members actually get together as often as they can to keep our history alive by flying old models with old radios.
We're all eternally grateful to Ron - thank you! - but we appreciate that sometimes a change is as good as a rest. Ron has many other interests to keep him busy - he's a keen amateur radio operator specialising in morse code (very retro, but still very relevant today) and his better-half Kerry is also a fully qualified ham, so its a hobby they share as a family. Be assured though that Ron wont be disappearing, he'll still be chipping in now & again, hopefully posting more of his amazing old AM radio restorations, whilst his previous S/C and Reeds creations remain the standard we can only aspire to.
A sincere thank you Ron from all of us here, keep those Light-programme and Home-Service radios coming, and also many thanks to Mike for stepping up, organising the changeover, and ensuring that mode-zero continues ever onward
Cheers all, dont forget, save tomorrows posts until Wednesday.
Phil
