The PSKRepView software showed up an error this morning (1st August) and it wasn't a fault within the software itself.
It was a "socket error 11001, host not found" message and is due to the DNS not resolving at PSKReporter.info for the data retrieval facility. Browser access confirmed the DNS lookup failure, as did "ping"-ing the site. The normal map graphic support is still ok via the browser so the site is not totally offline.
I have emailed the contact at PSKReporter.info in the USA to enquire whether it is a permanent or temporary situation and hope to have an answer within the next few days.
Until that time, the software is not able to retrieve data so is unusable.
