Too bad it's not the WS1095....Phase 2 has made all but a few scanners useless in my area.

That's just the forums way of abbreviating a long URL. If you hover your mouse over the link and then look in your browser's status bar, you'll see the full URL. The full URL is:

The forum just replaced a portion in the center of the URL with an ellipsis (...).
