RivetBangers APRS Tracker

Post by bullojm1 »

I am proud to announce today RivetBangers now hosts an APRS tracking utility. It is extremely similar to what Joe Dubner's mail2600.com tracking system. Please check it out at http://www.RivetBangers.com/aprs/ . Let me know if any bugs or issues you find, and if you have a recommendation for any improvements or new features, let me know.

Enjoy!

Hi

I love the aircraft tracker, but it hasn’t been working for the past few days.

I'm also a fan of your aprs tracker, but as of June 18, 2018 no flights have been tracked or posted. Is there any plans to fix this issue or is this site shutting down?

Unfortunately I have been too busy to maintain the site. I made it as a hobby, and it doesn't provide me any revenue, so it's probably going the way of the other APRS sites.
