Otis Wave used to be a valuable resource for identifying parts in the field. But now I am unable to find the website. Does anyone know what happened to it? Did they take down the site or change the URL?

Also quoted as evidence

  • [comment u/drinkingmymilk] Just a continuation of Otis speed running to the front of the line in proprietary progress.
