SITE NEWS:

May 2008:  All Java -Find-U links have been removed from this server. Other Find-U links have not changed.  Links to all complete pages hosted on other aprs servers now open in a new window. These changes make it easier to browse the originating server.

April 2008:  This site may be accessed using a new address: dfwposit.net. You can bypass this "news" page by going directly to aprs.dfwposit.net.

March 2008: A hard drive failure took the UI-View server down for awhile.  It is running on a new drive and a different pc for now.

Please note:  This site is not using UI-Digi, however APRS packets received off-air by this server are relayed to internet APRS servers (APRS-IS).

Special thanks: Thanks to FindU.com, and APRSworld  for data and maps, as well as F5VAG for Google Map support.  Additional thanks go to those hosting APRS-IS servers.

Here's a quote from WB4APR's page:

"...Digis with too much coverage [cause problems] in populated areas (exceeds the ALOHA principle) - (low is better) But this is easily fixed by making it a one-hop-only digi..."

APRS was developed by Bob Bruninga,  Thanks to FindU & APRSWorld  for links.
