Re: FUNcube Warehouse Upload Ranking Changes
#22 likes it. I think it'd be neat to compare the rankings to latitude as well. My station has run almost full time collecting telemetry since launch, and I continue to slide down the list. I'm not upset or even bothered by it, but it illustrates how much more access time a high latitude station gets on a polar orbit as compared to say, a 28.3 degree latitude location.
Competition has probably doubled the participation in this endeavor, which only helps the project. Plus, if it doesn't hurt anyone, why even care? Much better things to get tweaked about.

Hi,
It took 40 minutes to write the code of the train on the way to work this morning and was an interesting challenge and the Google Analytics spiked as soon as I released and and announced it.
So I'm happy with it, as are the the FUNcube team. One of those asking for it, is part of the team.

Am I the only one wondering why any user felt the need to have a column showing rankings added?
