I think it would be *FAR* better to contact the owner first. From what I've seen, the connection is slow and there is a lot of material there. It is also possible the site could be mirrored on a faster connection; after all, the guy is a ham and thus a good guy :). <IMNSHO ON> BTW, this site has been posted both here and on the Heath Listserver. It is entirely possible that a number of people are hogging the bandwidth and copying the site. If so, that kind of misuse could well result in the site going down. Look at the notice on bitsavers! <IMNSHO OFF>
