Hal,
I wouldn't care to start one somewhere and do the web design. The 
provider I use is freewebs.com. It runs $30.00 a year minimum. It's easy 
to set up and they allow FTP. Most of these small ones can be set up and 
done with donations from the readers. However, most wont donate, a thing 
I found out quickly =). It would be after the 3rd of next month before I 
could start one up at freewebs but they do have a good service which is 
cheap. The file size limit is about 50 megs if I recall, but these pics 
and designs don't take much room either. Another member of this mailer 
runs one his self but his costs is a staggering amount like $1,100 
dollars. On freewebs, the size limit and bandwidth can be increased by 
extra money though. I think the next thing up from the $30.00 a year is 
something like that amount a month. A website with four parts, theory, 
propagation, electrical, and mechanical would make a good start. Each 
part having sub-sections with details, and links. With several donating 
to the work, by authoring parts of the website, would be about the only 
way to make it fly quick. It wouldn't matter who did what, as I'd like 
to see something like this finally come about. I will help in any form I 
can if others will jump in on the project. I can do so much as where I'm 
handicapped, I'm home all the time.

One other thought is that if somebody has a HTML server running on a 
home computer which is online full time. If they would be able to do 
this service, that would count wonders. It would have to fit his/her 
allowable bandwidth that the ISP provides. A university may want to 
donate the server and space, but finding one would be something to do. 
Let me know and I'll do what I can.

Best & 73's
