I know that Bob sometimes reads the postings in this group. I can
understand his decision to withdraw the program, shut down the Website
and close the Yahoo support group. The grumbling in the Yahoo group
was getting out of control and even though he kept releasing new
maintenance versions and trying to help folks with problems, the
whining continued.

In hindsight it might have helped if some kind of moderation were
introduced. The main shortwave.com website has been pulled but if you
look deep enough you will find the community feature is still there. So
are the online receivers if you check your remote radio client.

Bob, I want to thank you for a great program and adding the code to
support my Kenwood R-5000. I will continue using it until the external
database formats (HFCC, PTSW, Eibi etc.) change to the point that I
can't load them anymore. Wishing you good DX and hoping one day there
will be an announcement that SWLog is available once again.

I'll continue using it, I decided to not to be an "early adopter" of V5
so stuck with build 2411. Fortunately I still have a copy of the
installer, but I can't put it up on the web as Bob has requested that
all mirror sites be removed.
