yes i just seen this as well!
-
Yes I just checked and all seems to be systems go!
Mr G must of been busy getting it all up and running again. I see that NRG Kits NZ is also back up.
-
RN seems to be back up and running now! Weird but good 👍

Maybe an eel caught in the server rack? I think it was legal in new zeeland to operate 300mw, maybe more I don’t know, there may of been a market over there. Always think of xena and gabierial when I think of over there, maybe they listened to some jungle in the jungle. 8)

I don't know how true this is, but apparently the same person who was running / hosting the radionecks forum is the same guy from NRG Kits in New Zealand, strangely that website has also gone down https://nrgkits.co.nz/
NRG Kits NZ has not been updated in a very long time, same for their FB page. I sent a message and nothing heard back from them!?
Good detective work zozo, that does not bode well. Maybe if NRG was a commercial affair it was sensible to run RN's website as a kind of influencer site
for sales but if NRG went down the pan. A bit sad in many ways if the motive was just to run it as a sales helping website. I might being cynical though.
I don't suppose selling PLL's is exactly a pension boosting money spinner these days !
All conjecture of course. A bit of a mystery.

i’ve not seen myslq database since i put it on a website 20 years ago, suppose their probably reliant on the makers keeping these things up to date and having to update it yourself, big social networks, youtube, amazon never go offline they’ve got millions of quid to keep them going, you’ve got to hope that something keeps going, a big ask in the environment were living in today.
Thanks for the welcome, i’m surprised noone knows who owns it or has contact with anyone, I do think we had something nice. I was the last person to post on it, the next day it was gone, I did think clicked over the maximum number of threads, it can’t been that, didn’t like to think i’d broken it.
I did think of writing in a blog, kind of dilemma it not been there. I'd think about that too when the old radionecks was around, you’d make a thread over there, maybe afew months later someone would comment, find it on google, maybe some vaildating thing.

Hiya....good to see you here one and all. No dis to RNs, but we know not its fate.
We just need to start building some links and content so casual people start dropping by and signing up.
Even a few duplicates would be good to get the ball rolling. I am not connected with this site in any way just
would like to see a good thing kept going, like most of us I suspect.

I think the guy on the south coaste was Tecniqs.
I'm not joining if this muggy neck is in here!!!11 :o
-
I think the guy on the south coaste was Tecniqs.
I believe you’re right. Also has a YouTube channel if I remember correctly.
The VU DJ mixer meter avatar rings a bell.
-
Hi I wasn’t sure weather to come or not, weather it would come back, I will keep the same name as before wasn’t sure about that either, shame when we’d just started talking about the hitman and her.
Welcome radionortheast, nice to see you here.

Good work RadioNorthEast ! The attempt at rallying the old crew are not in vain. I am sure we will all keep our eye on RN but in any event it makes a lot of sense
for us to have a second place to hang out, hope you are well !
I have bookmarked this website and will check RN once a week. It is a fact that it has a lot of content over there but we do not know its fate.
So we just have to build some here I reckon.
The more the merrier they say.

Spot on 👍

Whatever happens, even if it comes back and can go again.
Many factors might involve bothering to sign up. The chance of it coming back online would be significant, maybe some just think it might come back. It may do
but it can drop off again any time.
I can remember the following names, sorry if you are here already. I know some are ;) RadioNorthEast, Shuffy, DaveParsons, Duncanorak, Sprog (or sproggy) TheListener maybe?, MPX, the guy down on the south coast with the beam on the hill, I cannot recall the name. Might be good to post a few names you can recall so they might have impetus to sign up quicker
I have bookmarked this place now so I see it and log on more. Everyone has to do their bit I think, whatever you can do, do it. It might all help.
We need some pirate chat around the Xmas time, Frosty dipoles and all that ;D
-
With a bit of luck people might search RNs and spot this post on this forum if it starts to appear in search engines.
I get an impression it is some website configuration, probably something easy. Although I don't know much about websites.
You do get the impression the moderator is not very attentive to the site at times. No disrespect intended, he probably has other things on.
Hopefully a minor glitch. I don't use the tech stuff much but it was a very in depth resource.
Sign up if now and don;t leave it till later if you drop by

Thanks Schmellenschmellen, its a shame whats happened to RN, and I personally would like to see it's return. There's a lot of old posts which are very interesting and this would be a shame to loose them indefinitely
It's nice to see so many already come to join the RB forum and if anyone is in direct contact with those who used RN, then a little heads-up about here is a good idea.
If and when RN does indeed return, the 2 forums can easily co-exist side-by-side. Personally there's some things about this forum software I like better and visa-versa.

Radionecks website has been down quite a long while, 3 weeks or so, I am a regular at Radionecks it may come back but maybe we should show some love to this forum as well. If anyone sees this from Radionecks join up and we might be able to keep something going if it is the end of the road. I am sure the owner of Radio builders wants RN to come back as well.
We can spread our bets and always use here as a place to come, worth signing up here in case Radionecks is up and down like a yoyo.
Sign up 

In the meantime I am keeping happy looking at some old D BULLOCK Vids.
