Introduction

In an effort for users to avoid having to register multiple accounts to use the Portal (as an individual and as a member of several organizations), the 44Net Portal now allows for users to associate their accounts with multiple organizations, eliminating the need to set up additional accounts.

Overview

• When a user initially registers for an account on the Portal, they are registered as an individual.
• Upon account setup, each user that registers as an amateur radio operator is associated with the organization “AMPRNet” as the default. From here, a user can either create a new organization or join existing organizations.
• Additional call signs can be added to a user’s individual account, provided that the call sign belongs to them.
• Call signs can also be added to an organization account, provided that the call sign belongs to the organization.
