Anyone here also use SAGE Endec systems as part of their repeater network for emergency alerts? Are you currently dealing with monetary issues around the “for a fee” firmware updates? Or are either of the founders also part of this group (or someone here know them), K2SMC and NK6K. Looking to find solutions and or contact them. Thanks -Colin VA6CCB

5/15 update: progress with tickets, upcoming mailing list outages this weekend, Hamvention, regional coordinators’ meeting next week

by Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV

Hi 44Net community – As much of ARDC’s staff is on the heels of heading to Hamvention, I’m writing briefly with some updates before we get a little quieter than usual for the next 4-5 days. 1. ARDC’s TAC is all-hands-on-deck to process the backlog of Portal tickets. I recognize that waiting for your ticket to be handled – in some cases for as long as 6 weeks – has been frustrating. Please know that we are working through the last of these as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience. 2. As many have noted, the mailing list is having issues with users being randomly unsubscribed and/or their emails bouncing from the list. Chris will need to turn off the mailing list at times over the weekend to address these issues. ** In order to avoid technical difficulty, we suggest saving any non-urgent messages for early next week. ** Alternatively, feel free to head over to https://ardc.groups.io/g/44net/. Chris will send a notice to the mailing list when things seem to be working again. 3. This weekend is also Hamvention, and many of us will have our hands full working the ARDC booth. As a result, please expect slower-than-usual staff replies to this mailing list and groups.io. 4. Last but not least, we will be hosting a meeting with Regional Coordinators on Thursday of next week. On the agenda will be discussion about how Regional Coordinators can use the new portal, as well as some general discussion about how we may work together to create processes and procedures for coordinator roles, including but not limited to the possibility of regular meetings where we can work together on these issues. RCs, please look for upcoming messages about this in your subgroup at https://ardc.groups.io/g/coordinators. 73, Rosy -- Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV Executive Director Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ardc.net

Re: Regarding Address Verification

by lleachii＠aol.com

Chris, E.g. - So if I wanted to request a /24 at this time, what should I do to proceed?Would a second verification be necessary?If it's in the name of a club or RACES organization, what would I need to do to validate (verifiable letters from the government sponsor may be easier than verification of the postal address of these gov't facilities).Lastly I wanted to note, comments being made about deleted PII seem to forget the fact the Portal/process then proceeds to require a Ham to enter a postal address that matches their license/QRZ/whatever. In FCC land at least, such a match is obviously PII (and now matched to public/44net IPs/hostnames associated to an individual).I respect and applaud the notion and the due diligence, I just wanted to clarify that point.I digress in reiterating like others - how the process will become nearly impossible in Europe and other areas, due to growing privacy regulations, requiring the Ham to transfer more PII to ARDC.73,LynwoodKB3VWG

Level of Trust Expiration?

by Cara Salter

Hello! I just took a look at my verifications, and I noticed that they all have an expiration date. What happens when the verifications expire? What happens if my level of trust drops to 0 when all verifications expire? 73, Cara

Regarding Address Verification

by Rebecca Key

** *Hi Everyone,* * As you are all aware, we have a significant amount of outstanding tickets in the Portal related to address verification. In an effort to expedite the process of resolving these tickets and thus getting users up and running with their address space in a more timely manner, we are only going to ask for address verification if you are requesting a BGP allocation. If you have previously requested address verification and are not requesting a BGP allocation, your outstanding tickets will be removed, and thus no action is needed on your end. We hope this update is helpful in streamlining the process for utilizing the Portal. As always, please reach out if you have any questions and/or need clarifications. 73, Rebecca KO4KVG * -- Rebecca Key - KO4KVG Communicaions Manager Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ardc.net

Portal Tickets - Who to contact?

by lleachii＠aol.com

FYI I am also getting rejections from the mailing list as of Friday May 10th. I still haven't received a response about the 23 tickets that are pending and unassigned - which is seems are needed to do my normal annual DNS work (BTW - which seems will require MORE tickets). I must be honest, this is getting insane. This normally takes 1 hour - and nobody is responding to me who previously took responsibility for administering everything (i.e. Chris). This process has been the same for over 10 years, now I can't even get a response. - can someone PLEASE respond with that's going on- again, I am willing to help/work - because I am not willing to wait for something we usually did in 1 hour or less and so Should I just notify my government sponsor that something's going on - is ARDC defunct or something? This is becoming pressing and if 44net is not available for Amateur use, this section needs to know. 73, LynwoodKB3VWG

Announcing: ARDC's new Code of Conduct

by Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV

Hello, 44Net! Last spring, ARDC put out a survey about whether we should adopt a Code of Conduct. The vast majority (~75%) of you Agreed or Strongly Agreed that we should. I’m pleased to share that, after many drafts, the day has finally come! https://www.ardc.net/about/legal/code-of-conduct/ Please give it a read, as it applies to all ARDC-hosted spaces and projects, including this mailing list. We’d love to hear your thoughts and questions. Feel free to respond to this thread for an open discussion, or email conduct(a)ardc.net for thoughts you’d rather keep private. If you are interested in having a public Q+A over Zoom, please let us know and we’ll set one up. As noted in one of the first paragraphs, we see this as a living document and expect patches over time. If you have feedback or suggestions, please send it to the email address above. Please also be patient with us and our replies – we are working with a new committee and will be building the plane as we fly it. The current committee members are noted in the document. Thanks for taking the time to review the Code of Conduct. We’re looking forward to continuing to growing the ARDC community, with this new Code as a solidifying block in our foundation. 73, Rosy -- Rosy Schechter - KJ7RYV Executive Director Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ardc.net

Re: Portal Tickets - Who to contact?

by Teton Amateur Radio Repeater Association

> I have to admit I’ve been surprised by the number of folks that requested verification of an address that does not agree with their license. It would also be good to have your information correct with the FCC, or other government agency, that issues your license.

We did not anticipate the huge flood of tickets since the portal went up. We have added additional members of the TAC to work through the Callsign and Address verification tickets.

But we are NOT spending any extra time trying to match records. If we find any conflicting information, we are simply rejecting the application. At this time, we are not going to send out post cards or use other methods to verify addresses. Mainly due to the costs involved. The cost of sending out a simple post card, is typically over $2. There are hundreds of addresses needing verification. > > I have to admit I’ve been surprised by the number of folks that requested verification of an address that does not agree with their license. > > So if you have a pending address or callsign verification request, make sure all the public databases agree with your request. > > — > Dave K9DC, K9IP > > > > > On May 14, 2024, at 10:23, lleachii--- via 44net <44net(a)mailman.ampr.org> wrote: > > > > FYI > > > > I am also getting rejections from the mailing list as of Friday May 10th.

Creating Tickets on Portal

by lleachii＠aol.com

All, When creating a ticket on the Portal, if you then proceed to add a file (e.g. a file of a screenshot), it deletes your text. I screenshot my issue - hopefully it was seen. Just FYI. So not sure people can report issues. 73, - LynwoodKB3VWG
