APRSMY APRS Net

aprsmy aprs net

The Ultimate APRS Companion for the Malaysian Amateur Radio Community

APRS has always been more than just position reportsโ€”itโ€™s a real-time communication layer for amateur radio. APRSMY Bot takes that idea further by transforming APRS into a fully automated net participation and analytics platform, purpose-built for Malaysiaโ€™s ham radio operators.

Designed and maintained by 9M2PJU, APRSMY Bot blends radio automation, live statistics, and a futuristic cyber-style dashboard into a single, cohesive system.


๐Ÿค– Automated APRS Check-Ins โ€” Zero Friction

At the heart of APRSMY Bot is a fully automated APRS listener.

Operators simply send a CHECK to APRSMY message during net time.
The bot instantly:

  • Recognizes the station
  • Logs the check-in permanently
  • Updates statistics in real time
  • Reflects changes live on the dashboard

No manual logging. No voice roll-calls. No duplicated entries.

Just clean, reliable APRS-driven participation tracking.


๐Ÿ“Š Live Statistics That Actually Matter

APRSMY Bot doesnโ€™t just log activityโ€”it turns raw APRS traffic into insight.

The system continuously analyzes participation data to produce:

  • Hourly activity distribution
  • Weekly participation trends
  • Top operator leaderboards
  • Historical check-in records

All updates are reflected live, allowing operators and participants to see net momentum as it happens.


๐ŸŒ A Futuristic โ€œCyberโ€ Dashboard

The APRSMY dashboard is designed to look as advanced as the technology behind it.

  • High-contrast Cybertron-inspired UI
  • Real-time visual updates via server-sent events
  • Clean, distraction-free layouts
  • Designed for long viewing sessions during nets

Whether displayed on a laptop, tablet, or wall-mounted screen, the dashboard delivers instant situational awareness.


โšก Built for Speed and Reliability

Performance is not an afterthought.

APRSMY Bot uses a Redis-backed caching layer to ensure:

  • Ultra-fast API responses
  • Smooth real-time updates
  • Stable performance during peak activity

Even during busy nets, the system remains responsive and visually fluid.


๐Ÿ“ฑ Mobile-First, PWA-Ready

APRSMY Bot is fully responsive and optimized for mobile devices.

  • Works seamlessly on phones and tablets
  • Supports Progressive Web App (PWA) behavior
  • Feels native on both iOS and Android

This allows operators and participants to monitor activity anywhere, without special apps or installations.


๐Ÿง  Designed for Real Nets, Not Demos

APRSMY Bot was built for real-world amateur radio operations, including:

  • Sunday nets
  • Club activity tracking
  • Event participation
  • APRS experimentation
  • Community engagement

Every feature exists to reduce operator workload while increasing visibility and engagement.


๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ Built for Malaysia, Open to the World

While APRSMY Bot is tailored specifically for the Malaysian amateur radio community, its design principles are universal. Any APRS-based net seeking automation, transparency, and engagement can benefit from this approach.


โค๏ธ A Community-Driven Project

APRSMY Bot is developed as an open-source project under the MIT License, encouraging collaboration, experimentation, and community improvement.

Bug reports, feature ideas, and contributions are always welcome.


๐ŸŽฏ Why APRSMY Bot?

Because modern amateur radio nets deserve modern tools.

APRSMY Bot turns APRS traffic into engagement, insight, and community visibilityโ€”all while staying true to the spirit of amateur radio experimentation.
