There is a site nicknamed "the way back Machine" that does archive a lot
of stuff on the internet and they do have an archive of his site...the URL
is https://web.archive.org/web/20150801180634/http://hposoft.com/
Unless somebody tells them to take it down it should be a permanent archive
of his site.

I don't know anything about his website, but he is on Facebook
occasionally, last post of his I think was a few weeks ago. I cannot be
more exact than that. I just went to that website and the host was tucows
and they say it has expired. Jeff is a member of SAC so they may know more
about it.

I was researching photometry sites and came across the hposoft site.
There was a lot of good circuit detail information there on building a
photometer, as well as some good IAPPP content.
That all seems to have disappeared.
Do you know Jeff Hopkins? Is the information still available?
Thanks,
JP
