New for January 2018: A new option has been provided for "mobile device" users, a mobile-friendly template accessed by using the URL http://mobile.ahrdf.net - it does a redirection to the main forum after that but the on-screen views are different.
Note that there are lots of the desktop version options missing under the mobile view, Latests Posts being the most obvious. It all has to do with the amount of screen real estate available on phones and tablets and since you can't fit everything, only the most basic Forum features are provided. Ditto, the Forum groups are listed but you need to "drill down" to get the individual topics and posts, again it is real estate.
If you see an "Accelerated Mobile Pages" option listed when you use the Options at top LHS, sorry but but that doesn't exist in this Forum setup.
Try it, bookmark it, comment upon its usefulness - but it will be staying so that the forum becomes more mobile-friendly in a world where they seem be becoming the defacto browser device for the younger generations and those oldies on the move.
The desktop view will continue to display the options you are used to seeing, along with retaining TapaTalk access.
Also new: A BUY & SELL section under Miscellaneous, at least as a trial.
If you have some radio/electronics bits you want to sell - or are specifically looking for - list the details here, noting that this is only a contact medium, not a sales outlet. List only your details (eg coded email address, ph number) that you will allow public, as all 'browsers' (and search engines) can see what you post. PMs from other registered Forum members is encouraged.

- Don't list things here that should be on VKClassifieds.
- Make your own payment & supply arrangements.
- Remember to edit your listing after you have sold/bought.
