Hi,
It seems I can query the database at aprsworld and that way get the
servers:
http://db.aprsworld.net/datamart/switch.php?call=PSKAPRS&table=message&search=Search
When I have the list of servers its easy to get their respective
positions. But, perhaps one could approach the aprsworld project and
create a more optimized query ?

That will verify you as a user.
