I scanned a printout (from 2008) and posted it here:

That is one of the items that is accessible from archive.org: http://web.archive.org/web/200805261...mbers_List.htm It is a capture from May 2008, though, and there are no newer captures than that date. The CT-100 I bought recently, number B1111566, is not on that list.

First, let me thank everyone who helped recover pages from my now-extinct CT-100 website. Fact is, the site will never be completely recovered without a direct link to the guy sitting on the archived ATT material. (it's been tried to no avail)
BACKGROUND: The site was built over eleven years starting in 1999 using a 'wizard' provided by ATT that generated the html code. Later years had some of the features written in WORD and saved in htm. These few items *are* archived in large measure on my old desktop. All the wizard-produced code was stored only in the ATT servers. But I figured, so what? ATT isn't going out of business... WHOWOULDATHUNKIT: Briefly, the ATT division/section that hosted my site and my <pldexnis.att.net> and <THE_SET.att.net> email addresses was apparently sold to someone who kept the once-golden ATT name and shaved away what they didn't deem profitable, namely the division/section that hosted my site and email. TODAY: While barely 25 megs in size, my CT-100 site was a maze of links and low-byte jpegs. In practical terms, it can not be rebuilt. The best I hope for are that core pages, written during the progression of my CT-100 restoration, will be posted again. One could properly ask, were customers given an opportunity to download sites before the ax hit? I have shared my circumstances with some of you. Point is, the site is gone. RECOLLECTIONS: Most of the editorial content consisted of personal CT-100 recollections: the very first caretaker to respond was Steve McVoy who, in his pre-ETF days, restored a CT-100 and Philco TV-123; both are now on display at the museum in Hilliard. Years before I ever met him, Bob Galanter had provided a tidbit of his youthful encounter with color television. John Folsom and I speculated in 1999 that probably only 50 Merrills remained (we were about 1/3 right). Bruce Buchannan and Scotty Avaid were talking and experimenting with early concepts of 15GP22 rebuilding. John Folsom had the first 15GP22 20-pin stems manufactured by 2004. Dave Abramson shared vintage color experiences for the site as did Steve Dichter and Steve Kissinger and Marlin Mackley; Ed Reitan phoned a CT-100 happening in 2002. All this and much much more is now vaporized in cyberspace. Depressing. But we trudge on. I have been offered space on existing sites. When CT-100 restoration pages are again on line, I will post the URL here. I very much appreciate your interest. Pete Last edited by Pete Deksnis; 06-01-2011 at 10:26 AM.
