[aprssig] THANK YOU :: Simple FCC Call Sign LookUp Service

[Nagi Punyamurthula]

First off, *Thanks* to all those who gave this a quick spin and took the time for sharing your feedback and helping uncover a couple of bugs.
There were 2 bugs that were consistent across the feedback and were surely + easily reproducible
1.            previous call sign details (when existed) were incorrect; This was in cases where the call sign was a transfer from prior licensee
2.            zip code was missing in the output
Both these issues are now fixed.

Please keep your feedback coming.  This was TRULY appreciated.  Thanks

Hello all –
I just published a simple, no-nonsense, free, call-sign lookup service: Here’s how to get to it and use it.

Examples :

1.       http://call.n0agi.com/?c=N0AGI

provides a line formatted output of lookup data. Simply call the url w/ “?c=” followed by call sign in question

2.       http://call.n0agi.com/?c=N0AGI&f=0

the “&f=0” format param offers a one line, pipe separated detail.  It spits out a header by default.

Some details behind the scenes:

a.       Web service/page and the guts behind this service is hosted on RASPI Debian as a web farm infrastructure.  Currently, albeit, there’s just one RASPI holding the fort :)

b.      Uses nginx and php5 for web ops

c.       Uses crontab to run job services

d.      Uses grep/awk to parse data and provision output

e.      FCC data is pulled daily overnight into the web farm

f.        Data is currently for US/Americas only.  Plans are to expand to other zones soon

g.       Other formats in the play to come soon. XML, JSON

I hope this will be useful to all and kindly drop me a note on your feedback, ideas, etc. or if you run into any problems accessing it

Thanks all

73, N0AGI-Nagi
