[AMRadio] AMFone

[Jim Candela]

I have tried to enter the site about 6 times over the last few days, Nada..500 error

I fear that whatever the issue is, a data purge might be necessary to update, and fix the site. Without the 20+ years of data, the site would never recover. Activity today on AM message boards is elsewhere. 
A reflection as to why the big posters moved away is only partially due to aging members, and silent key syndrome. 
I remember a time when I uploaded an image from a 1930's R9 magazine, and I was warned about copyright laws...Admin said, a descendant of the author might be triggered, and sue. Never a mention about copyrights that all expire, if they were ever copyrighted in the first place. I once contacted the ARRL about the copyright issue regarding posting QST articles from the 1950's, and they would not answer my question. Therefore some board admins enforce the copyright issue, even going back to R9 magazine in the 1930's, much like an HOA Karen.
