Web Site Changes
This page includes some of the significant changes made to the web site.
| Date | Description |
|---|---|
| 11 Mar 2010 | Added a new page Download Member List CSV File to the Members' Area. This page just has the download link for the memlist.csv file. The file is already available from the Member Lists page but the new page makes the file easier to find and is intended for use with the FISTS Log Converter program to be released later this week. |
| 19 Feb 2010 | Access to the protected Members' Area pages and files is now using a different type of security. This has reduced the time the pages take to display. Also, after logging on you will now stay logged on for one month (provided you haven't disabled "persistent cookies" in your browser). |
| 06 Feb 2010 | The new Measure Callsign Weight page, which measures the "weight" (time taken to send) of callsigns in Morse, is available from the Resources page. |
| 01 Feb 2010 | I've moved the web site from a Linux server computer to a Windows server computer. The only noticable differences for now are that the exact case no longer matters in URLs (e.g. links.html, Links.html, LINKS.HTML etc. will all work fine) and when you go first go to the Members Lists page, the delay in the Online Search box and button appearing has gone. |
| 30 Jan 2010 | The Online Search feature now allows typing in more than one FISTS number or partial callsign at a time. |
| 26 Jan 2010 | The FISTS QSL Bureau page now contains details of the new G0, GD0, GI0, GJ0, GM0 and GU0 sub-manager. |
| 19 Jan 2010 | The public Key Notes Archive and the members' Key Notes Archive have been extended to include Key Notes from 1993 back to December 1988. |
| 16 Jan 2010 | The Activities Calendar page now includes the change to the G0HGA VHF/UHF/SHF CW Activity 2010 to include 23cm and 3cm (10GHz). |
| 09 Jan 2010 | The FISTS Awards and Contact Us pages now include the new FISTS Awards email address fistsawards@fists.org. |
| 07 Jan 2010 | I've added Standing Order details to the Annual Renewal page. Please view the page via the Join or Renew page. |
| 05 Jan 2010 | As Twelfth Night starts at sunset today, I've removed the Christmas decorations from the web pages. (Don't want any more bad luck with the Solar Cycle!) |
| 04 Jan 2010 | It turns out that the copy of the May 1993 Key Note has the wrong date printed in it and is actually the May 1994 Key Note. It is now available under the correct year from the public Key Notes Archive and the members' Key Notes Archive. |
| 30 Dec 2009 | I've added a new page for Annual Subscriptions (2010-2011) and updated the subscriptions fees. Please view the pages via the Join or Renew page. |
| 18 Dec 2009 | I've updated the Online Search feature on the Member Lists page. The results for Eu/UK callsigns will now be more up-to-date (normally changes are incorporated within 24 hours). (Results for USA, Australasia and East Asia callsigns will be as before - usually correct to within a week or two.) Additionally, you can search for part of a callsign and display all matching results. The callsigns are provided as links that you can click to go to the corresponding QRZ.COM web page. |
| 09 Dec 2009 | Added some seasonal decorations to the main web pages. |
| 25 Nov 2009 | The public Key Notes Archive and the members' Key Notes Archive have been extended to include most Key Notes between 1993 and 1999. |
| 17 Nov 2009 | Added Ian G6TGO, the Key Note VHF/UHF section writer, to the Contact Us page. |
| 04 Nov 2009 | The documents referred to on the Awards page were missing; I've uploaded them now. Please report any problems such as broken links to webmaster@fists.co.uk so I can fix them. |
| 02 Nov 2009 | Added a new page showing a full size version of Bill NT9K's Key Number 9 sideswiper key. Added images of the FISTS CW Course to the Club Sales page. |
| 26 Oct 2009 | Added new links to the Links page and also marked them in red to make it easy to spot recent additions. |
| 24 Oct 2009 | Revised the layout of the Awards page and brought it up-to-date to show all Awards offered by FISTS Chapters. |
| 23 Oct 2009 | Added details of the formation of the East Asia Chapter to the Home page. |
| 19 Oct 2009 | The Join or Renew page now leads to separate pages depending on whether you are a previous member or a new member. (The previous dual-purpose page was causing some confusion.) |
| 18 Oct 2009 | The Club Sales page now includes the new-style standard QSL cards and the FISTS CW Course. |
| 16 Oct 2009 | The Awards page now gives Dennis K6DF as the contact for awards. |
