405 Alive downloadable magazines
On the NBTV forum, it was brought to my attention first that the run of 405 Alive magazine up to its incorporation into the BVWS Bulletin is now available online and second that issue 11 does not appear to be accessible.
Although, as a BVWS member myself, I have this archive available on CD-ROM (in which issue 11 is readable), I am loath to breach copyright by uploading my copy to the NBTV forum. Although I appreciate that this forum is not an official instrument of the BVWS, I would appreciate any guidance that may be available here.

Re: 405 Alive downloadable magazines
Sorry, Paul, but I still get a blank page with the message "This PDF document might not be displayed correctly" when I access it through Firefox, while attempting to download directly into Adobe Reader results in the error shown below. I wonder whether there is an issue of different software versions.

Re: 405 Alive downloadable magazines
The old download must be stuck in your browser cache.
Try a different browser or computer, or clear your browser cache, or use a private browsing window. I've just tried it on my laptop (I re-uploaded the file from my desktop earlier) and it's fine in Firefox with its built-in viewer. The file was 0 bytes previously so the original FTP upload must have failed without me noticing. After uploading again it's now 2.6MB. |

Re: 405 Alive downloadable magazines
My apologies. Although I still got the same message when retrying the download today, a refresh sorted the problem. I shall report accordingly.

To round this off, I can report that the NBTV forum now has satisfied customers.
