I am checking into this. It appears that the domain name MODELT-TIPS.COM information is pointing to a company site HIKVISION's logon page. I have sent an email to the Registrar tucows.com.

Apparently Bill has given up the domain, which requires money to maintain, in favor of YouTube, which is free to use.

That's is what I assumed also. Just contacting the Registrar because I don't think it should point to HIKVISION's Logon page but something that says the domain name is available for purchase.

Hi

I was amazed, two/three weeks ago the website worked for a day. I happened upon it.
It's an interesting site and very helpful. Unfortunately it doesn't work anymore.

All the information available on the internet is very helpful for me as I don't speak English so I can work with online translator. Unfortunately, written manuals on paper don't help me because I can't understand English.

Is there more information elsewhere that I could use? How are the MTFCA Restorations DVD structured? Are there texts or films on it that I can translate? Could this DVD help me?

Greetings from Switzerland
