Title: REQ: Kinetic offline? Where can I download Basestation from?
Post by: crewtags on January 13, 2019, 07:52:35 PM
I had the need to re-download Basestation today but can't seem to get onto Kinetic's website, every link I try says it doesn't exist (have I missed something?!)

With this in mind is there anywhere else on the web to find it? Every website that claims to have it for download just redirects to Kinetic's download page!

TIA

Hi,

If you send me a PM I can give you link to Google Drive to download a copy of Basestation 184.

Cheers,

Keef.

Never forget to try the Wayback Machine at https://archive.org/web/

This is a repository of websites. If the website has gone/is unavailable and you are lucky it includes the links and downloads before it disappeared.

Just successfully downloaded the CD version of BS184, all 13 Mb.

Good to hear the Kinetic site is back up, it was definitely down yesterday.

Cheers,

You will find most companies have updates and services at weekends. It would pay everyone to download the software and store on flash drive for future use

I agree that websites go down from time to time, but sometimes they go down (or bits of them do) and downloads that were once available never re-appear.

http://www.sbs-resources.com has gone and SBS plotter from jetvision has I think disappeared from the internet.

Yes, always a good idea to keep copies for personal use, but nice to have a forum where people are willing to help as well I think.

Cheers,

Keef.

Keef, I think the Gatwick Aviation site has some SBS resources under the Mode S active display.
