nsk, that + the tip about why this specific site was giving me fits fixed
it up just great.

I wound up with teh command line:

 wget --convert-links --no-parent -r -l0 --domains=www.backupcentral.com \
 http://www.backupcentral.com/amanda.html

Just to get the final resolutin in the list archive for those that may
search for this later.

NOTE, the -r 10 is probably excesive here.
