[44net] Re: Organization Callsigns (was: Re: Update re: subdomains)

I brought that up before. The way I expected it to work was that I could manage a number of different callsigns on behalf of our club or organisation or whatever you want to name it. But I would still login under my own personal account, which would get access to some different callsigns which are then also subdomains of ampr.org. I do not seem to understand how it is working now. At first I was asked to make an account for our club, but then I need to login using the credentials supplied for that account, and I do not like that. It also causes confusion, because when I make a ticket I get the usual "your ticket has been updated" mail which does not have much info, but when I then click on the link to the ticket I just get "ERROR" and it took a while before I realized that this was becuase the mail was about a ticket for the club, and I cannot access it unless I login "as the club". Then, there also is the issue of the number of callsigns. Apparently it was envisioned that a club would have a single callsign, and that one could attach that to the club account, and for flexibility it would be allowed to have up to 5 callsigns. But our club has way more than that! We operate several repeaters, and unlike the situation in the US repeaters do not operate under a personal or club callsign, but have a unique callsign per repeater. This even used to be different for the same site on different bands or modes, but that requirement has been lifted by the authorities. So now for new repeaters we can use the same callsign on 2m, 70cm, 23cm, FM, DMR, D-Star, Fusion etc. Before that was not the case so we still hold a lot of callsigns for all permutations of that, and for callsigns that have been changed in the meantime there still are legacy "aliases". So basically there is a requirement for a "club" (or "organisation" or whatever) that is responsible for maintaining HAM infrastructure, including repeaters etc, and holding a reasonable number of callsigns (5 is too limiting). And it should be possible to make a regular user an admin for the club, so they can perform changes for that club from their user account with their own password and 2FA. There can (and should) be more than one admin for a club, and it should be possible to see which admin made a change, if not immediately in the user interface then at least on query to the ampr.org admin (via a ticket). (note that I was not suggesting it would have to be that complex. the simple method of having one or more local coordinators who can enter the data as necessary was a lot easier) Rob On 2024-06-14 19:49, Dave Koberstein via 44net wrote:
