RF Cafe Server Switchover Complete - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

-- Amateur Radio
-- Anecdotes, Gripes & Humor
-- Antennas
-- CAE, CAD, & Software
-- Circuits & Components
-- Employment & Interviews

-- Miscellany
-- Swap Shop
-- Systems
-- Test & Measurement

Greetings:

Well, yet another domain server switchover is complete. I apologize for any inconvenience to you. The old server was extremely unreliable and crashed twice for over 8 hours each time in just the last three months. A proactive approach called for going to the trouble of moving the entire rfcafe.com domain to a new server, and with an entirely different host this time.

The forum was backed up on Friday evening, so everything prior to that time is still here. I disabled it during the transition, so there should be no lost postings.

Thanks again for you patience.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
