📚 How to Check In on APRS Thursday

Choose your preferred method below

HOW TO CHECK IN TO #APRSTHURSDAY OVER JS8CALL

Example Message Format:

@APRSIS CMD :ANSRVR :CQ HOTG text goes here

1 Space

Required after CMD

1 Colon

After CMD space

1 Colon

After ANSRVR

Your Message

After the last colon

⚠️ Important Rule:

The destination station callsign must be 9 characters in length. Add spaces as needed to ensure the field is all 9 characters long. In this example, ANSRVR is 6 characters so 3 additional spaces are added at the end.

💡 Note from KC8OWL:

Note - an Internet-connected station must hear your JS8 signal for this to work.

HOW TO CHECK IN TO #APRSTHURSDAY VIA APRSPH

Example Message Format:

🔑 Key Differences from ANSRVR:

•

Logging only - Your check-in is counted but not broadcast

•

Simpler format - Just HOTG + your message

1. Send to APRSPH

Address your message to APRSPH

2. Start with HOTG

Begin your message with HOTG

3. Add Space

Include a space after HOTG

4. Your Message

Add your check-in message

📝 Example Messages:

HOTG Hello from the Pacific Northwest

HOTG Checking in from Florida

HOTG 73 from the Rockies

✅ Benefits of APRSPH:

•

Simpler format - Easier to remember and use

•

Privacy focused - Your message stays in the logging system

•

Reliable tracking - Consistent check-in counting

📋 MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

📅 Net Schedule

The APRS Thursday net is held each week on Thursday between the hours of 00:00:00UTC to 23:59:59UTC.

Based on your browser's locale, you can check into the net each week anytime between and in your local timezone.

🎯 How to Participate

To participate in the net, you have two options:

Option 1: Broadcast Check-in (ANSRVR)

Send an APRS message addressed to ANSRVR:

CQ [space] HOTG [space] Your message text...

This broadcasts your message to all participants.

🔄 After Check-in

Once you receive your ack from ANSRVR send the following follow-up message to ANSRVR:

U [space] HOTG

This will "Unjoin" your station and prevent additional traffic from being routed to you and eliminate unnecessary traffic on the system.

ℹ️ Additional Information

If your message has been successfully received by the ANSRVR (announcement server), it will be sent out to all hams who have checked in within the last 12 hours.

You can also head over to the Recent Check-Ins page and see if your message has been seen on the APRS network.
