Not sure what to do with timing yet, most of the time we'll have no
more than 5 vehicles to track, at Mid Ohio I could have up to 12-15.
I'll have to play with the options in the opentracker on the sending
side, to see how I can most intelligently deal with near-real-time
updates. When in action, 30s is far too slow, but I dont see how 5
vehicles could xmit updates every 5 seconds without lots of
collisions.
Use another frequency - let odd vehicles use freq A and even vehicles
use freq B. The xastir station has a receiver/TNC on each frequency.
With frequent updates, timeslotting is your friend.
Now that I think about it, if you're updating every few seconds there
may be a bit of latency in xastir's display processing.
