Radio Help & Advice: and Radio Hardware/Software Hacks: I do thank it would be helpful
so I voted yes
Creating the sub-topics is very easy to do, moving the existing stuff would be a long job but would be possible. Re-coding the rest of the site that interacts with the forum would be demanding but also possible.
One thing that would fall apart would be the links from Google and other search engines as their BOTs add new links daily but removing old links can take years, literally!
For this reason, only demand will drive the change.

With many years of website and SEO experience my advice is either do not re-sort the threads or do the archived section and if you still have time after that move a handful of recent or high activity threats into the new sections and add redirects for the old links in the .htaccess file.
Not sure your technical level but if some of this your unsure about and want help feel free to contact me by email.
P.S. I code in php, mysql, javascript mainly but tinkered with several other languages.
Fortunately, the number of posts was small but every one had to be moved individually because there were so many messages that didn't belong in that section and had to be moved to the correct area. This means some sort of database automation is not going to work.
This looks like it's going to be a monster job
