JS8Spotter MCForms, Simple Forms for JS8Call ‐ Publishing Guidelines

This page is for rules relating to publishing forms for JS8Spotter.

Guidelines for Publishing Forms

The official forms repository for JS8Spotter is managed by the SITREPNET Project. Please visit the SITREPNET forms publishing site for the latest forms, public forms, and other forms information. Forms released with JS8Spotter include those managed by the SITREPNET Project.

JS8Spotter with MCForms makes no attempt to obscure, encrypt, or encode messages or their meaning. We publish all forms included in JS8Spotter on the SITREPNET website. We also allow and encourage other operators to publish their JS8Spotter MCForms forms with SITREPNET, provided that those forms:

  1. Adhere to FCC amateur radio guidelines governing over the air speech
  2. Have no business or pecuniary interest
  3. Are aligned with common amateur radio best practices reguarding communication forms
  4. Are created by licensed operators whose callsigns will appear on the site
We reserve the right to publish only forms we determine meet these criteria. Publishing forms on SITREPNET is not a requirement for using custom forms with JS8Spotter, and operators will not be impacted in their use of the software if their forms are not published here; operators may choose to publish their own forms on their own private websites or in other locations. We strongly encourage operators to publish their forms publicly to avoid the impression that they are confuscating messages.
