Ham Radio - A contact sport

Propfire, the Firefox radio/solar propagation data plugin that displays sunspot/prop data in the status bar, is now (finally) compatible with Firefox version 3.0.  I had sent a plea for help to the developer community as some major changes to the browser had led to a number of issues.  Trevor Hobson kindly offered to review my code and make the necessary changes to bring Propfire up to speed with  FF 3.0.

After several intermediate versions, some beta testing of this version by a number of ham radio operators, and a lot of help by Trevor, Propfire is once again working as expected.  Release 0.73.15 is now posted on my website and has been submitted for Firefox add-on review.

So, although I can’t guarantee that we’ll see more sunspots (sigh), at least Propfire is again compatible with Firefox.  

Thanks again to Trevor and the beta testers.
