When registering do you gotta be currently in a agency or would civilians do as well Thanks

[@coetak]

COTAK and WFTAK are not for civilian use. We open our tutorials to the public to add to the TAK community. However, we do not have the capabilities to support civilian implementations of TAK. Thanks for the comment!

Custom map sources please! good video.

[@coetak]

Thanks for the comment! A custom map sources video is on the to-do list. Next up is a pt. 2 of our getting started tutorial, we will cover general usage of TAK for the three applications.

Yeah, when signing up it requires for the user to be a part of an agency or organisation, what would you do for recreational use?

[@capzac16spectrum20]

has anyone figured this out yet? how can we get an account?

[@capzac16spectrum20]

How can civilians get onto a server? What agency should be used and what not?

[@coetak]

The COTAK and WFTAK servers are dedicated to the use of government first responders only. Check out TAK.gov for info on how you may implement TAK on your own.

The video is not about anything. How to connect to your deployed TAK server? Which has a self-signed certificate.
