Public APIs

I have made some APIs that might be useful to amateur radio operators, and they are listed here.
If any of these are particularly useful to you, please contact me so I know that people are using them
All of these are hobby-level and are offered as-is.
Uptime/availability is not guaranteed
Correctness of the content is not guaranteed
If the load becomes too high, any of these might be withdrawn.
If you'd like a more robust version of these, get in touch.
