Fuzz Central Temporarily Down

Fuzz Central has bypassed it's 1GB bandwidth allocation for the first time in 3 years.  That's a LOT of traffic!  I'm going to open a semi-mirror site in the very near future...it won't have the full content, but it will have all the good stuff like all the files for the main project pages.

Blast...right when I added the SD-1 modification page, too!  :evil:

Make sure it's back soon! I like it a lot!

phillip, I ran into issues with your site one day about a week ago. It said out of bandwidth and come back in an hour. I wasn't real happy, so I used the wayback machine to look at an older version.  I hope you find a mirror soon, because Fuzz Central is an invaluable resource, not to mention just a damn cool site to browse!

It's back up and running for now, but I don't know how long the bandwidth will hold out.  It doesn't seem to be too bad.  

I've started removing some of the unneeded stuff from the site to keep it from eating up the bandwidth so bad.

I'll be adding the DS-1 modification page soon, too!

Phillip-

Let me know if you need any help.

Thanks Bill!  I haven't heard from you in a while, I hope everything's going good on your side of the monitor ;)

I've moved most of the schematics and PCB layouts to my AT&T web space.  They allow linking to images from another domain and they don't measure bandwidth, so it'll work for now and it should take some strain off of the Tripod account.

Hi Phillip,

I hope you can afford to keep it the site going.  It's a great site.  It's sometimes challanging to have a popular site with SO many downloads going on.

Thanks for all your work.

Yeah I know - I have a Tripod site and although free you do pay a price.

Will talk with you later.

I quess this is a good place to say thank you to you Philip:

I have had a print from the scrambler schematic that has been floating around the net for some time and I have built one pedal from it for a friend. When I started building my own copy I found your site and the schematic (re?)drawn by you. It really made things easier as it is a lot easier to read.

So: Thank you! (inser emoticon showing thumbs up here)

Thank heaven the site is back up. Now I can gaze at your Fender blender again :D
I don't like Holland. Nobody has the transistors I want.

Thanks guys  :D   I think that now that I've moved most of the schematics and PCBs that aren't directly related to the main effects project pages to my AT&T free webspace, most of the burden will be lifted from Tripod.  Luckily AT&T doesn't measure bandwidth (I don't think...)
