The best way to handle this is run your APRS stations on a frequency
other than 144.39. This assumes you don't need, or can replace, all
the digipeaters and other infrastructure on 144.39.

Xastir can be a long process to get installed, especially
on Windowz boxes. A web "interface" allows anyone who
shows up in the EOC to see what we see without the hassle
of installing Xastir. This goes double for transient EOC visitors

If you have Imagemagick installed in a strange place
cron may not be picking up your environment and may
not be able to find all the libraries when it runs. Try
surrounding your code with a shell script where you
