What if I am contacted by a ham radio operator and told that I should not be using a ham radio Internet server like aprs.net or findu.com?
Some ham radio operators have the erroneous idea that the Internet is like the radio spectrum with bands specifically for ham operation. This is simply not true. The Internet is open to all. While the owners and operators of servers can choose to bar access to some users, our Citizens Weather activity is fully supported by the owners and operators of the APRS servers that we use.
