[aprssig] aprs setup/weatherlink software

[Pete Loveall AE5PL Lists]

If you use your callsign with a valid passcode, APRS-IS is the place for you ;-).  The APRS-IS server operators would prefer clients connect to second tier servers as the core servers tend to be running close to their maximum connections.  I recommend you use a round-robin DNS name so you are not limited to a single server (redundancy, load-balancing, etc.).  The aprs2.net network has a number of round-robin DNSes such as rotate.aprs2.net.  There are others listed at www.aprs2.net.

Hope this helps.
