To anyone using ( or trying to use ) a copy of the DoppSite or GoogleHunt DF
programs.... ( from Bob Simmons )
It seems Google Corporation's latest version of GoogleEarth ( V 6.1 ) has
some "bugs" that mess up the DF display plots which are generated with my
DoppSite and GoogleHunt DF programs.
The problem was noticed about a month ago, only a couple of people have
noticed and reported it to me... but I get 100 downloads per month of the
GoogleHunt program, so I figured I better address it.
-------------
Presently, the only solution seems to be using an installation of the
earlier version of GoogleEarth for the display. ( V 6.0 )
Google Corp doesn't make it easy to find the older version of the program,
but it is available on their website.
I have therefore created a new webpage describing how to find and get the
older version of GoogleEarth :
http://www.silcom.com/~pelican2/PicoDopp/DD_GE.html
I have also added some notation to the main website page, in the sections
describing the DoppSite and GoogleHunt programs, with a link to this new
page.
The main PicoDopp website is here :
www.picodopp.com
That's it... sorry for any inconvenience. ( but it's not my fault.... )
