     Website Restored


I am sorry it took so long...  Issues with my provider for Internet was the problem and we could not reach a reasonable solution. Now we are serviced with 1G Service for UpLoad and DownLoad this will be a very significant improvement over the old service of 550 down and 27 up.

********  ATTENTION *******

 

 Radio Archives are/have had issues due to several software related updates...

  This is due to when the Proscan Developer pushes an update it freezes the ability for the

software to continue recording and also to display the scanner for those connecting via Web or Proscan....

 

Again today another Update was pushed overnight affecting prior recordings for APP. 8 hours...  

hopefully soon a Stable update is released.

 

Thank You for understanding.
