Established a new third-level domain calls.recnet.com. Copied the code from recnet.net/calls to this new virtual server directory. Placed redirects on both legacy and Sys40 to the new site. This is a part of the System40 objective to remove public facing applications from recnet.net in favor of recnet.com.
Upon reconsideration, we will be transitioning recnet.net API endpoints to api.recnet.net. The recnet.net/api endpoints will be depreciated and eventually removed with the change of the recnet.net domain to System40.
Recoded and transitioned 7 REC APIs:
- chanRpt
- lpfmChk
- lpfmWide
- recID
- towair
- towerFind
- towerinfo
Depreciation messages have been added to the current endpoints on the Legacy server.
Updated and transitioned internal application N06.
Updated and transitioned internal application N07.
Updated and transitioned internal application N08.
Retired recnet.net applications
With this weekend's transition of the main recnet.net domain to System40, the following items will be retired and will not make it through transition:
| AM/FX Tool | recnet.net/amfx | This tool was deployed for the 2016 AM Revitalization FM Translator "250-mile move" opportunity. The current tool utilizes CDBS data, which has been frozen. It no longer provides any valuable information. |
| Custom ad hoc reports | recnet.net/custom/* | This directory contained several ad-hoc reports with the latest code updated in 2006. These tools use CDBS data, which has been frozen. They no longer provide any valuable information. |
| Dismissals | recnet.net/dismissals | Transitioned to the recnet.com environment in 2016 and currently handled by the Filing Window Application Tracking System (FWATS). For the past 8 years, this has just been a redirect to the .com environment. |
| Guel Tracker | recnet.net/guel | Tool that was used to track questionable applications filed in the 2013 LPFM Window by Antonio Cesar Guel. All applications have been dispositioned. The current tool utilizes CDBS data, which has been frozen. It no longer provides any valuable information. |
| LPAM Channel Search | recnet.com/lpam | LPFM channel search tool to support RM-11287. This tool does not reflect any proposal that the FCC or the community is actively seeking, however we recognize that it may be a good resource for Part 15 AM operations. The current tool utilizes CDBS and older census data. This tool is leaving recnet.net but may return in the future as a Toybox application. |
| MX Groups | recnet.com/mx | In 2021, this page was integrated into FWATS and has been a redirect since then. |
| Pending | recnet.net/pending | Pending LPFM application list. In 2022, this was transitioned to recnet.com as a Toybox application. |
| Today | recnet.com/today | Formerly used as a page that displayed today's application actions. In 2015, this tool became FCC.today and has been redirecting ever since. |
| 2013 filing window information pages | recnet.com/window1 recnet.com/window2 recnet.com/window3 |
These were once the original static web pages that were used to track 2013 LPFM filing window activity in the MX Groups. In 2021, the data from these pages was incorporated into FWATS and these pages have been redirecting ever since. |
Revised tentative agenda for transition activities
Today, we are releasing a tentative "agenda" to indicate the potential order that sites and internal applications will be transitioned over. While we do not officially provide a timeline, we will provide a potential order in which services will be converted over:
- recnet.net (currently in progress).
- manual functions used to update Mexico IFT data.
- LMS raw data daily download and database update (LMS will be duplicated in both databases during transitioned).
- manual functions used to update HFCC data.
- Some applications used in the morning updates (ENAC, RRS, FM Zones, Superpower, CDBS NAD converter, Pleadings Combiner, spare call sign list [call sign UI already transferred], PI Codes, public data generators, etc.)
- Identify and copy over any static databases not already moved over.
- eLMS parsing programs
- Copy eLMS data to new database. (This will involve a weekend database outage)
- eLMS List (programs involved with near-real time updates)
- Commence dual eLMS operation (update frequency temporarily reduced from 10 to 12 minutes during conversion)
- eLMS programs involved in the daily morning updates.
- FCCdata.org
- FCC.today
- myLPFM.com
- LPFM.us
- LPFM.ws
- Internal application N01
- LPFM.app
- Shut down eLMS operations on Legacy thus ending dual operations. Return eLMS to normal schedule.
- County War
- Inventory Legacy, determine data eligible for archiving. Archive data.
- Shut down legacy database.
- Retire and shut down legacy system.
