Re: Heyu and RFXrec

[fearless@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Well, for Internet Archiving I figured I would update my own post.
I haven't received any resolution to this and I haven't been able to join the HeyU_Users Yahoo Group.

On a good note, I found RFXcmd, a Python script based version that does what I need.  you can find the project at: http://rfxcmd.eu/

Good luck!
