Where did fmscan.org go?
« on: December 07, 2021, 0041 UTC »
Many of you will be familiar with the fmscan.org webpage. It was a great application that allowed you to enter geographical and other details and to find radio stations of all kinds, as well as propagation characteristics and the likelihood of hearing such stations from anywhere in the world.

Now I just get 404 when I go to that page. Anyone here know what's going on?

Amazing!

I was on a VPN, and when my location was set to Poland, there was nothing. I switched to Iceland and now I see the page again.  :o

I can't image that page is blocked in Poland, but for some reason, simply switching VPN to another country did the trick.

Thanks SIGINT for your quick reply.

No problems. I am located in Canada and have also occasionally ran into some geolocation blocking.
