I would be happy to host it on my AccuWeb server in Denver with the
understanding that IF the traffic, et al. causes me to have to spend
TONS of money, I will need to find a way t make it pay for itself....
or "beg" for donations.
It's a SUPER fast and almost completely unpopulated server with 4 full
cores, lots o RAM, and SSD storage...
I LOVE ALL my Cady books. Wish I could have met him while he was here.
Sadly, unless someone in his family still has his PERSONAL machine and
access to it, OR made a download of the site BEFORE it expired, it is
almost 100% that the data disappeared into the ether when they pulled
the plug... (wiped it).
MIGHT be able to recover a substantial portion of it from the WayBack
Machine. That's how I got all the Sommer website, before someone else
found an archive and put it back up... (Sommer's family trashed ALL of
his notes, records, drawings, et al.... so they say.... I spoke with
one of his heirs. I was going to take out a $500k loan to put the -808,
et al. back in production.

Maybe this isn't new news but the KE7X.com website that is a treasure
trove of Elecraft information seems to be expired and "parked" -- not
accessible. Being new to Elecraft, I just learned Fred became an SK in
May of 2019.
I just received a Lulu.com printed copy of "The Elecraft K3 and P3 -
Third Edition" book for my new-to-me K3 that I bought recently, it's
an awesome reference.
Would there be any interest in re-hydrating his website if we have a
way to get the files/data? I would certainly be willing to sponsor it
and buy the domain/host in the cloud to keep it going since it is well
known and in various print references.
Thanks,
Tony, KX3H
