[OZAPRS] VK5 homepage (Norm McMillan)

[Jack Schultz]

Hi all,

I believe it is Damien VK2TD*G* actually hosting the site.

It could indeed be a good time for a revamp, what with recent interest from
F calls (and others too) in APRS. Having an online presence can make a
difference in that prospective APRS operators can see there is some local
activity and find out a little bit more to hopefully take the plunge.

In contrast, most commonly I hear on the air "jump on aprs.fi and look at
my car driving around" - so this could be a good way to introduce to
curious folk that it's a bit more than a vehicle tracker.

I for one would be happy to take over the VK3 page and get some local
knowledge in there.


Regards
Jack VK3FJTS
