Hello, first post here...

I also completely understand your position. Even considering that your
operation is perfectly legal, any sort of FCC attention means at least a
headache.

That said, WSPR alone is a great tool, and if there is interest it'd be
possible to clone WSPRnet. I looked at the WSPR code and it seems like
it'd be a one-line modification to change it to another server, and the
server end for a low-profile LowFer version shouldn't be too hard. API's
are not copyrightable so there is no issue there.

I don't know how to do the graphing stuff with Google Maps, but that
could be something to learn later on.

Let me know if there is any interest.
