John, when I try the link, I get "The page you are looking for could not be
found." (iE)
And.. "Oops! Google chrome could not connect to www.ad5x.com"
And finally Firefox says "The connection has timed out".

I've been having this problem for some weeks now.

However I just found it in the ARRL archive: 2009.
Search on AD5X and 2009.  It comes up as the second article on the list.

Rick -

The latest link on the ALS600 didn't work, but the one I sent covering both
ALS500 and ALS600 was fine this morning.
