I don’t think it was more than an hour later.  I honestly thought he shut it 
down.  I sent him several offlist emails asking about it.  Nothing.  Pretty 
sure he went somewhere and came back after a weekend or something.  I don’t 
know how long part-15 kept going after that.  I felt bad about it but I didn’t 
do it as a coup.  Not sure if Michael ever believed that.  

Folks were contacting me wondering the same things we I gave folks a place to 
hang out.

That's pretty much how I remember it. Quite ironic that the server crashed the 
day that Bullet (Bullit?) wrote the "I QUIT!" message. Kind of a strange twist 
of fate I guess.

  One day he got mad and sent a note “I OUIT!!!” to the list.  He was pissed 
because someone posted a Trango question on the Canopy list or something like 
that. 

  Then, part 15 quit working.  It stayed down all day.  That evening I was 
fielding lots of questions about whether or not part 15 was done for good.  

  We set up a listserv and told everyone about it and everyone ended up here.  
Michael realized a day or two later that his server had crashed ( I think he 
may have went on a short vacation or something).  By then everyone was chatting 
over here.  

  (We did take a rather odd detour through WISPA for a while, but they decided 
they then owned the list and we got it out of there).

  Part-15.org days—wow, haven’t thought of that for a while.  What was the name 
of the dude who ran that list?  IIRC something went down between him and Chuck? 
 Some kind of conflict..

  ...in central / northish Kentucky, near Lexington / Frankfurt / Lawrenceburg 
/ Anderson County.

   

  I don't need it *now* but I am scouting in advance of being there.    Don't 
need a ton of bandwidth, just decent latency and reliability for working from 
home.   Good-ol-days 900Mhz Canopy -- no thanks.

   

  Thanks to anyone who gots any help.

   

  (I joined this group many years ago ... part-15.org days cuz I was doing this 
for money, but been outta it since 2010).
