Usage[edit | edit source]

  • The list is a snapshot. Poll ListStations to follow changes, every few seconds at most.
  • A single server sorts the list by callsign. Through the public gateway, the lists of all server nodes are merged into one, so do not rely on the order.
  • A station's UUID changes every time it reconnects. Callsigns are not unique.
  • Positions are as the operator entered them.
