[Dxbase] Farewell

Fri Jul 31 13:33:15 EDT 2009

Thanks for all you have done in the past for DXBase users. Jack. I have used DXBase since the DOS days, and feel that it is still the best logging program available.
Hopefully someone will purchase the rights to it and continue it.
73 and Good DX to You,
Fred, W1SKU

 Effective today, we have discontinued the sale of DXbase and we have taken 
 steps to close Scientific Solutions, Inc. For many months, we have studied 
 the prospects of further development work on DXbase. We have studied your 
 answers to surveys, private emails, reflector posts, and telephone calls. 
 It became clear to us that DXbase 2007 already provides nearly all of the 
 capabilities that the vast majority of our customers want. Therefore it 
 would be unlikely that we could improve enough on DXbase to warrant upgrades 
 in the near future.
 So after many many years, we have come to the end. We appreciate the 
 loyalty that we have been given by so many of you and we wish you success in 
 your ham activities. We've made a ton of friendships over the years and we 
 are grateful to have been given that opportunity. We will of course remain 
 active in ham radio and will no doubt see many of you again.
 We have been accepting offers for the purchase of all rights associated with 
 DXbase source code and will continue to accept offers for another ten days 
 or so. If a deal is reached with anyone, you'll hear about it from them. 
 Since our DXbase email address will be shut down shortly, we will be 
 accepting offers at a temporary email address aa4lu123 at yahoo.com.
 Best wishes and thanks for your support,
 Jack
