[Amps] open source RF Info was re cooling of coils

[Will Matney <craxd1@ezwv.com>]

Bennie,
I know that's true and you see it full blast all the time. Plus as you 
know, hosting aint cheap either. It's a shame how some take advantage of 
others work, mainly for profit or dont want to pay the expense of 
hosting and thus leach files running up your bandwidth. I've had my 
website shut down by the provider several times for going over the 
bandwidth limit. But, I look at it this way, maybe some have learned 
from it. I've not had this happen for a while as I caught some leaching 
from mine and stopped it. I did have a link on my webpage for the radio 
power tutorial by Bill Eitner but seen it was down long ago. I done this 
with his permission however. If I had a copy of the webpages, I would 
store it on my end.

I'm going to try to start a small amount on mine about homebrew amps. 
When I do something with it, I'll post it on here for all to know about 
it. Thanks for the input Benny, it's been a long while since I spoke to you.

It would be cool but.
Very few people would post information if there was such of place.

1. The leach problem (most people want to take and not give)
2. The "I am a better tech than you" problem. (better known as the a**hole)
3. The problem with the people without a life that would want to trash the 
site.
4. I don't think the amateur hobby will ever reach the level of open source 
like software folks.
5. Amateur Radio is not a hobby to a lot of people now it is a business. 
(Maybe the FCC should change the name)
6. Look at ARRL and the list go's on.

This doesn't apply to everyone just just allot of people out there in 
Amateur Radio.
I could be wrong but this is what I have seen on the groups on the net and 
places out
on the streets.
