Quakes?  Sure.  firenet.us:2023, or the filtered port there.  I have
Perl scripts which do web-scraping and inject them into the APRS-IS
and Firenet streams.  For Firenet they only have to have a magnitude
of 0.1, for APRS-IS I think the limit is 3.0.

Another ham did Perl scripts as well, before I did mine.  W9IF I
think?
