[OZAPRS] MAPS MAPS MAPS

[Peter VK1NFI]

DG..

Just out of curiosity Damien, how much bandwidth are you using in you 
mirror site??  I am downloading the maps (yes I know I made a fair 
portion of them, but when you have a file server and the HDD poo's 
itself and you loose everything, life becomes interesting...) and the 
best D/L rate I seem to achieve is 30 KB/Sec, and it has taken more than 
10mins to download the 13MB VK1 .zip file.  I am using 1500 ADSL.

Cheers
Pete VK1NFI
