Bob being an Eagle Scout I think it's great that you being the APRS guy are
trying to use it in BSA events. One question I have is I know we have a Boy
Scout and Girl Scout "icon" but would it not be cool to have a Eagle Scout
Icon for APRS??

As we all know NWS folks use CWOP "traffic" daily. As a storm spotter I
wish we could get this resolved ASAP. I have used the data that CWOP folks
send out to help spotters in the field that do not have APRS know what
others are seeing. This is a great backup to check to see if both the CWOP
person and you spotter are seeing the same thing.  I personlay think it's a
shame that the had to trun the server off. I am reminded that on aspect of
Ham Radio is the "SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY," and personally don't think we
are being of service to the community by turning off servers that are
NEEDED by NWS and storm spotters. Some of you have to understand the NWS
runs on a budget just like every other government office so do you think
they have the time and $ needed to set up a CWOP server that would work
with FindU, I personaly don't think so. At this time I can not currently
help fund a CWOP server that would work with FindU, but if that is what is
needed to fix this "HAM RADIO WAR" then so be it and I would be willing in
the future when I have the $ to do so, to help fund it.

Oh and to the "CORE" team keep up the great work that you guys do to keep
HAM RADIO REAL and a SERVICE to the community.

Also to the core team if I can help in any way let me know. Side note I
have a server that has Redhat on it and would be willing to set up programs
with the "CORE" folks help as I don't know much about Redhat but have the
websites up and running :).

My IGATE in Perryville MO is connected to first.aprs.net:14579

Just for the record...  we do support the NWS..   and many other "services"
to the tune of 28-percent a year!

Some of you have to understand...  *we* work on a budget too!

This might be slightly off topic, so I will keep it short.

All 37 Tier 2 servers are available to accept any data, including CWOP 
data, on port 14580.

Everyone of course has the right to  make their own choice, but for a ham
that values the data they send to the APRS IS, it would make more sense to
send it directly to the core, where the sysops demonstrate the highest
principles of amateur radio, service and and professionalism. Core sysops
have never cut off service because they got mad.

The core now has 4 fully linked core servers, and two hot standbys in case
Tier 2 gets mad again and decides to cut off the amateur users the way they
cut off Citizen Weather users on Saturday. If that day comes, the core will
be able to take the full load.

Service and Professionalism...

Hello,
 
My project requires a GPS receiver that will not automatically shut down
at an altitude of >60,000'.
 
Does anyone know of a unit that fits this requirement or one that can be
easily configured/modified?
