About

What this archive is

Source

APRS-IS, the internet gateway of the Automatic Packet Reporting System. The collector subscribes with a message-only filter, so positions, weather and telemetry never enter the archive.

Collector

One process, callsign EA7KLK-15, receive-only. It never transmits, and it closes the socket's write side after login so it cannot.

Storage

SQLite on a retained volume. Every message-format packet is stored as heard: sender, addressee, body, kind and the message ID. Bulletins are also kept deduplicated, so a repeated bulletin shows once with a transmission count.

Retention

365 days for messages and bulletins, swept nightly. Nothing older survives the sweep.

Access

Anonymous and read-only. The archive holds nothing that everyone on the air could not already hear, and the web process opens the database read-only so it cannot alter it.

Identity

Every message is third-party unmoderated traffic. Callsigns are not verified identities, and a message body says what its sender wanted it to say.
