Re: Using Ultra to research the Luftwaffe

Nick/Franek,

Recently the National Archives appear to have changed their processes regarding the DEFE3 files and break them down into several sub files for "ease" of downloading.

e.g. DEFE3/831 is 190 mb and is now broken down into 4 files for downloading

A few years ago when I downloaded DEFE3/747 I was provided with 1 file of approx 250mb. When I download that same file tonight they have now reduced the overall file size to 212 mb but broken this into 5 separate files, each of approx 42mb.

While this helps some users it just adds an extra layer into the process as you have to wait while the file is broken down before you can commence the download.
