FAQ - Frequently asked questions
General information
This is a selection of links to texts in the forum boards "FAQ". The contents depends on which language is selected and on what has been written in or translated into that language.Most FAQ texts are still only in German but we are working towards full texts in all languages. Since this site was created in Switzerland, German speaking members were the first audience. German is now outnumbered by other languages but it is still the most active.
You can help to find texts or add and translate into English. Please tell the CMS-Admin (see link "Groups" within "Community") if you find a suitable text for linking here or first write a forum message to a FAQ board. Translations of any of the texts would also be much appreciated. Thank you. Guests can do that with the contact form.
For members: See here in post 11 what has to be done to get as good a FAQ page as in German.
In the meantime you have to go to the Forum and to select the board FAQ for Radiomuseum or to try if there is text in English if you understand English. It is up to speakers of each language group to create decent texts!
