Your example of pskreporter and hamspots are not involved in and do not facilitate QSOs - they only collect metadata of QSOs. Any attempt to involve the internet with the completion of QSOs will probably be rejected by the ham community.
If you want ham radio to rely on the internet, get yourself a chat client and hang up your mic.

That is correct, it also can be considered as moving costs of power amplifiers and antenna systems to the server/software. At the moment we have approximately 65k FT8 users and there should be simple control layer protocol, costs may be similar to keeping pskreporter.info<http://pskreporter.info> and hamspots.net<http://hamspots.net> at 24x7 operation. . 73 Igor UA3DJY Date: Sun, 9 Sep 2018 01:32:20 +0100 From: "G8DQX (WSJT developers on SF)" <wsjtde...@gape.me.uk<mailto:wsjtde...@gape.me.uk>> To: wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X 2.0 possible new mode/protocol Message-ID: <cdad522e-acfc-16b7-53f2-766fbad16...@gape.me.uk<mailto:cdad522e-acfc-16b7-53f2-766fbad16...@gape.me.uk>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed" Igor, you forgot to mention that HLR & VLR technology is a *network* artefact, generally to be found in mobile telecommunications networks. The application to the Amateur Radio Service, where there are a large number of stations but *no* over-arching network control is very unclear. For a public telecommunications network HLRs and VLRs, more accurately their interfaces, are defined by standards developing organisations (SDOs) such as 3GPP, paid for by network operators, and usually developed by network manufacturers. These things are not cheap, and they require continual maintenance and end-of-life replacement! What did you really have in mind?
