Hello Paul,

There is no really much information about the web site. It is handled by me
and the domain name would say a few things. N2YO is an amateur radio call
sign which is an unique identifier ("N" means USA). So I am amateur radio
(ham radio) enthusiast living in USA. I am also software developer as
profession but I enjoy writing web applications as hobby too. To complete
the picture, I am amateur astronomer, member of NOVAC (a large local
astronomy club - www.novac.com)

Linking to my web site would be highly appreciated. I also provide a small
tracking widget for ESA
http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Track_ESA_missions/index.html and I maintain a
little gadget on Google:
http://www.google.com/ig/directory?hl=en&root=/ig&dpos=top&cat=technology&so
rt=popular&start=7&url=www.n2yo.com/sat/gsat.xml

Broadband is not required but it would be nice to have. I tested the web
site on dialup and it works decent. It would take about 18 seconds to load
the home page first time with a 56k connection.

Thanks,

Chip

Hi,

Would appreciate if the following questions could be answered. I haven't
heard of the site before. I maintain a astronomy and space site in Australia
at www.paulfloyd.id.au and am thinking of linking to the site.

I had a quick look but couldn't find an 'about' button to see who runs the
site.

I am also curious if broadband is required to see the constantly updating
maps.

Many thanks,

Paul Floyd.
