Those of you whom have the data, I am not sure about the legality or practicality, but it may be worth contacting Simon (Transmission1) to see if there's any way we can make that data searchable on here or through some other means.... just a thought

$40 is quite a chunk for the occasional user. chances are people will just go elsewhere.

Same time as last year (within a day), so maybe it's just the time of year when they do maintenance... or their server fees run out ;)

Can't believe it would be a hard site to maintain . I mean , how many new models of CB radio are made every year . 2 ? :)

I think that las time it was down was because there had been too much traffic. I guess people downloading the entire site didn't help. I don't know why Bennie stopped selling DVD sets or allowing contributions.

I think that this time is down definitely, bad news for the community.
Any contact with Bennie to know if going to be online again?.
Thanks
