NEC Archive users:

Lately, the server holding the unOfficial NEC Archives
(http:///www.qsl.net/wb6tpu) has become so slow as to almost be unusable
for downloads due to overloading on the system. (There are presently
50,000+ (yes, 50K) web pages being hosted on the Dual 1.2 GHz Pentium
III Linux box that hosts the archives.)

In the interests of keeping the archives a viable and accessible
resource I have moved the content of the archives to the server that
hosts the www.si-list.org web pages (si-list is a Signal Integrity
oriented discussion list). The archives can be accessed at the
following address: http://www.si-list.org/swindex2.html

Since the http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu address is a well known portal
(Google shows 29,000+ references on the web) the page pointers on that
site have been adjusted to point to the new location at si-list.org.

Downloads that have been timing out or taking 'forever'with a transfer rate
of about 0.3kB/s on the qsl.net site now clip along at about 100kB/s on
the si-list.org site.

I'll probably be fine-tuning things a bit and removing any bugs that
may have crept in as the result of the transfer, but the new location is
accessible and fully functional at this time.
