Hi George, David and Ed

Really love the podcast! I am a big supporter of NPR here in the UK and recently launched (in the last week) a dedicated website hosted over NPR. It is accessible using an internet gateway via my website www.m0ahn.co.uk

On my site you can:
- see technical information about NPR
- chat in real-time with me and other Radio Hams
- run speed tests
- check out my future plans

NPR offers a wealth of possibilities as you've outlined and this is just a basic start. The inspiration was to show examples of services (e.g. web sites, chat, offline messaging) that are possible with NPR, attempting to avoid the potential 'so what' when just showing a working IP network.

Overall my motivation is clear - i became a Radio Ham to communicate over Amateur Radio frequencies, not just use the Internet.

Keep up the good work!
