Thank you for the information.
ED7ZAB-5 has been one of our (CS5SEL-5) DXCluster upstream peers for
many years with the link very stable, we are sad to see it gone.
Thanks to them for the past service!
At the moment I still see it connected, probably will be closed in the
next days.
At this time we have active links for:
Callsign Type Started RTT Count Int. Ping Iso? In Out PC92?
ED7ZAB-5 DXSP 22-Apr-2013 1305Z 0.19 2 300 19 Y
F1OYP-8 DXSP 26-May-2013 1856Z 0.40 2 300 299 Y
ON6LR-5 DXSP 28-May-2013 1610Z 0.16 2 300 189 Y
VE7CC-1 DXSP 25-May-2013 0413Z 0.27 2 300 99 Y
We would like to compensate the loss and add one or two additional links
to Europe, preference goes to "hub" central nodes and locations within
academic networks (low RTT to us). ##IPv6## or IPv4 connectivity available.
Anyone available/interested?
Regards!
