So, what is the value of the 44.x.x.x network? To me, to allow amateur RADIOS to verify that the remote entity that they are communicating with, is (barring falsification, which can happen anywhere in amateur radio) another licensed amateur station.

100% ack! E.g. I offer access to the Packet Radio Network if you talk to my system with a source44 address.

The value to me of the ampr.org domain is less clear, other than providing a domain with nameservers that are on the 44.x.x.x network, and have a hope (?) of being reachable in a network outage.

It is a nice service and the only domain in which A-records match PTR-records.
