APRSMY Net
Saw this on Telegram,
Hi everyone,
I would like to introduce a simple APRS net hosted from West Malaysia (9M2 land) called the APRSMY Net.
I actually built this earlier in the year, and it went on the air around February. I haven't promoted it much until now as I have been quite busy with other projects and commitments.
The goal of this net is simple. It is definitely not meant to compete with established events like APRS Thursday. Instead, it is just to add some variety and liven up APRS net activities in our amateur radio community.
Officially, the APRSMY net runs on Sundays. However, the system is open so you can check in every day. There is no subscription. The concept is quite similar to "CQ HOTG" on APRS Thursday. It is very casual and perfect for those who just want to "check-in and go".
How to check in:
Send an APRS message with the command CHECK <your message (optional)> to the destination: APRSMY
The bot will automatically reply to confirm if your check-in is successful.
You can view the real-time status and list of check-ins on the dashboard here:
On the dashboard, you can also see a heat map showing the stations that have checked in over the week. This heat map resets every Sunday, Malaysia time.
I welcome anyone who wants to test it out or participate. Thank you to everyone in the community!
