Hi, 

I'm developing a custom balloon tracking software that uses APRS.fi for the tracking data on the balloon. I had an issue with my code and it hit the rate limit. The API guide says to contact someone to adjust the rates for the application. I was hoping someone could help me with that. 

Thanks,
Quinn

Hi,

You can email me privately. Please describe your application's needs in
detail.

Most of the time people get hit by the rate limits simply because they are
requesting a lot of targets one by one, instead of querying multiple
targets using a single request.
