Another comment about the above, Xastir was the first and I believe the only one so far to encode/decode this type of information, and the encoding used is _not_ in the APRS spec. Other APRS clients will not draw the circles. > In this case, though, it is apparent from the comments associated with the > object that it is being used to show the coverage of a UHF station rather than > SAR information. So they should be encoding it with PHG or radio range in the comment field instead, which would give the green PHG circles in Xastir and display circles or ovals in other APRS clients. -- Curt, WE7U: <www.eskimo.com/~archer/> XASTIR: <www.xastir.org> "Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math." -- unknown "Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates." -- WE7U The world DOES revolve around me: I picked the coordinate system! _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list Xastir@xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
