    radios....

    So anyway im building a new site on localhost. it will be somewhat ham radio related i guess. one thing i decided to do was add radio user manuals, service manuals, schematics, ect ,ect...

    never really noticed untill now, but god there is alot of f'n radios that were made.

    so far in the manuals downloads i have 261 total... and im not out of the A's yet... i could see that category put the 3,000 to 5,000 limit easy. once i make my way to the Icom,Kenwood, and Yaesu it should be real real fun.

    Just be wary of copyrights.

    For example, some yo-yo bought the rights to the Heathkit manuals, and now threatens to sue anybody who posts a scan of a manual online that he gets wind of.

    There's a whole lot of Heath stuff on line free for the download so if his lawyer is on the ball they both stand to get awfully rich. Get it while you can before it becomes another RIAA style crusade.

    yea. to bad the piss poor RIAA is just making themselves look like a major asses, which i guess is good as it dose push the P2P community into developing newer P2P technology like Anon P2P (which you will prob see soon with what happened to limewire)

    Dude who got the heathkit name sounds like one of them assholes who buys a domain name and just squats it, but dont dare grab the .net or .org or he gonna sue you.

    Sadly there is a lot of scum out there that will stoop to any level to get money. Nothing new. One time is was land rights, cattle rights, water rights, etc. These days it's copy-rights, patent-rights, and always some guys or gals willing to assume "rights" and then get some dirt bags to defend those..."rights".

    Remember when SCO was gonna sue the pants off Linux users. ? Till the developers said, "take your code and shove it".

    Why drag me into this? Years ago I even tried to sell my virginity. Seems they figured me out after I ran the ad for the forth time with a new ending date for
    bidding. :rofl::rofl:

    I beg to differ...
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
