    Registration is simple - just send me an e-mail with your callsign, name and what organization you represent. Use the link below, or create an e-mail to kd1yv@arrl.net .

    A note about abuse -- we are trusting users to not abuse this privilege. If we grant you a user ID, we are assuming that you are responsible enough to not post abusive items. Any indiscretions will be dealt with by deleting your user ID and there will be no recourse for reinstatement. Please be guided accordingly. To register, webmeister1@oneyv.org .
