[amsat-bb] OUTERnet becomes OTHERnet (APRS geo feed)

Since about 2 years ago, the APRS satellite ground station captures have
been made available worldwide via three GEO satellites for reception
anywhere on earth.

But I recently found that the OUTERnet system has changed to a new GEO
satellite constellation and no longer uses INMARSAT L band satellites but
is now using a KA band downlink over the USA.  And that they are now
selling a new receiver kit for this satellite.

Has anyone kept up with them?
Here is my original WEB page but with the  links changed from OUTnet to
OTHERnet:
http://aprs.org/othernet.html

If anyone has one of their receivers or is receiving the downlink and/or
wants to help me get my web page all cleaned up to what has changed over
the last two years, let me know.

This is a powerful capability.  I hope we can keep it working.

Bob, Wb4APR
