[Boatanchors] Electric Radio Issue

[Rob Atkinson]

What a lot of trouble just to search an index for a magazine.  A few
years ago I took all the paper annual indexes and scanned them and
converted the file to flat ascii text.  Now I open the file with an
editor like pico and do text searches.  That's all anyone really
needs.  editors like pico and nano are bundled with just about every
unix/linux distro and OS X.

A search of my index shows the W6BM article on the valiant is in issue
24.  It is on page 12.  "Curing that Valiant Sound."

He suggested getting into the Java Control Panel and once there locate the tab that lets you enter exceptions by URL. Once I had entered his URL (have to remember to include the "http" part, too) I didn't have any more trouble.
