PELNET is on a distinguished road
Software Downloads, Utilities & Online Reference

To All,

I know that many of you have specific websites and personal favorites when it comes to software applications and utilities that you use for installation, troubleshooting and general reference. I have been looking around online and have only run across a few of the types of things that I am in reference to which I will share below.

I would like for everyone reading this post to reply with their own personal favorite website, application and/or utility that they use on a regular basis in regards to this field and for technology in general.

I am trying to learn as much as I can from the people that know the most, you!!! If you do not want to share this type of information with me, I understand. If you would rather send me an email instead, you can do that as well at the following, john@pelnetsolutions.com

Here are the websites that I have found thus far in my search. I hope that some of you will find these useful.

Satellite Finder (arachnoid.com)
FastSatFinder (fastsatfinder.com)
Satellite Finder (matchboxpro.com)
Dish Pointer (dishpointer.com)


Thank you very much,

JRP
