[aprssig] So long.... APRS-IS officially has lost 1/2it's servers.

Pete I stand corrected.  I was confused as to who owned what but please consider the prior compliment to include yourself.  I don't use APRS as much as I should but I'm glad it is there.

How much bandwidth is needed to run a Tier 1 server?  A Tier 2 server?  I may want to get involved in some manner.  Let me know off list please.

Thanks!
