Default Utah Radio wiki link is down?

I was just trying to point a user on another forum to the Win500 user guide, and it seems the wiki is not available.

Hopefully this is just a short term thing...Mike

I'll try to get hold of Ryan and let him know.

He's been notified, he'll be checking it soon.

Thank you for letting me know Steve. I've got the site back up. I apologize for any inconvenience.

On my "to-do" list is better monitoring for that server. Eventually I'll get there, I promise.

Happy to do it. The site has been made popular by all of you, so you deserve a lot of praise. The site had 7,377 page views last quarter with visitors from all over the world. Nearly 3,000 of those views were going to the UniTrunker and Win500 guides. Those are clearly very popular topics.

About half of the people that visit end up exploring more of the site. One of the places they hit frequently is the "recent changes" section to see if there is anything new. I'm sure we are behind the curve when it comes to the latest stuff in Utah. I don't know where to start.

My point... people are _really_ interested in what you do. They may not participate directly, but there are many people watching. I think that makes this a pretty unique hobby. One thing I need to do is figure out how to link to the RR "live feeds" for Utah. I think featuring that more directly with a "listen now" button would be very beneficial.

Also, with 3500+ followers to the UtahAlerts twitter feed... how do we get more activity on the feed?

When Brent (qlajlu) and myself put those two Guides together (UniTrunker - Win500) we both tried to keep them up to date, since he passed I trying my best to do that.

I don't use UniTrunker as much as I used to, so if anyone that reads this post can make any improvements or make it more up to date please feel free to do so.

It looks like both Guides have helped many people and I'm sure Brent would have been happy to see the amount of hits they get. It took us a while to put them together, neither one of us had any Wiki experience.

I think of my friend everyday.

It's good to know there's so many people visiting the site. A listen now button would be a cool thing to add.

I enjoy that feed too. There have been times when I've heard events that I'd like to share, but don't know how to post to the feed. How we submit things to to be posted on the feed? I'd love to help contribute when I can.

I'll try to help update the guides when I can. I've made a couple of screenshots of the newer versions that I was intending to add to the guide, but life and other things have kept me too busy to get to it. I'll try to remember to add them.

I think the guides are a great thing. Thanks to you both for putting them together. I know both guides have helped get me going with those programs - especially Unitrunker, which for me had a bit of a learning curve. It's now such a big part of my listening, I don't know what I'd do without it.

I wish I could have met Brent. It's impressive to see all the things that he helped author and his willingness to share with others in the hobby!

I never did add anything about the band plan wizard, I mostly use Trunk88 now, so any help you can offer would be appreciated by anyone interested in getting UniTrunker up and running.
