Just came across this at http://www.nga.mil and those who rely on online FLIP info for DXing (e.g., NDBs, etc) will be out of luck come 1 October.
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) will remove DAFIF and FLIP data from the NGA public web site on October 1, 2006. Department of Defense (DoD) customers will be able to access DAFIF and FLIP information after October 1, 2006 by accessing the NGAs web site on the NIPRNet. The NGA NIPRNet site, in accordance with a number of DoD directives, will be Public Key Enabled (PKE); meaning that the site will be encrypted using the DoD Public Key Infrastructure (PKI).
