Is anybody else unable to download the firmware from the FTP Site?

 

I have not been able to download yesterday or today.

Hi Rich-

I have been unable to successfully ftp download from the Elecraft Beta
software site since version 3.19, while using MS IE-7 or the Windows XP
command line ftp.  I have not changed my PC software, hardware, or network
ISP (Sprint Aircard EVDO) - but, nevertheless something has changed
somewhere to cause my disconnect.  Wayne was a gem and emailed firmware
update files directly to me prior to my travels to 8R1.   

Ultimately, my Elecraft beta file FTP solution was to download a standalone
FTP client http://filezilla-project.org/download.php .  Filezilla is
extremely powerful and features great configuration flexibility.  In my
case, the Filezilla setting "ACTIVE Transfer" was the silver bullet for FTP
downloads of Elecraft beta firmware updates.

Good luck.
