Jersey Coastal Milair site is gone

[ka3jjz]

It looks like Hometown on AOL has pulled the plug. The old site URL was;

http://hometown.aol.com/jerseymilair/

Anyone know where this site has gone? We could absorb this into the milcom wiki rather easily.

ka3jjz try this url... there is a server that caches all websites and I was able to retrieve the website from December 2007. Its the most recent cache... http://web.archive.org/web/20071209043311/http://hometown.aol.com/jerseymilair/

Here is the link with all of the various caches of jerserymilair..
http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://hometown.aol.com/jerseymilair/

Yep, I tried doing exactly that at work, but it's being blocked for some reason. I can certainly use that, and perhaps migrate that data to the wiki, so if someone wants to take the time, updates can be done quite easily. I'm waiting to see if the original owner will step up and see what he wants to do.

Thanks for the reminder, tho, Nexus. Muchly appreciated. 73 Mike

Sorry to hear its blocked at your location. I have no problems accessing the information. Its there if anyone wishes to migrate it like you said. Maybe the site owner will put it on a new website, maybe not. If you can't get anyone to add it to wiki let me know and I'll do it for you.

Let's wait a week, Nexus, and give the original owner a chance to catch up (although if the last archive was in December, chances are he's abandoned it...). If we hear nothing, then feel free to start coding. There's too much good info there to have the data disappear.

Thanks for stepping up to the plate; really wish others would do likewise, particularly where milair is concerned. If you need help with something, yell
