If you're willing to experiment a bit, try bringimg up wview on the Mac or a linux box and let it both report the data and give you a nice web-based dispkay?

That said, I seem to recall a bunch of Davis updates committed to cvs lately, so it should work preetty well for you.

Hello all,

I'm seeing what's involved in making the switch from ui-view on an old PC to Xastir on my Mac.

So far so good. I've got Xastir compiled and showing maps from online sources. I've transferred over my Ui-View maps and all is good.

I'll need a serial to usb adaptor for the tnc but I'm not sure about hooking up my Ultimeter weather station.

Right now I've got another PC running Weather Display which outputs a wxnow.txt file every 10 minutes. UI-View picks up this file and uses it to generate my weather broadcast.

Is there a similar function in Xastir?

Since Weather Display generates my weather webserver pages, I'll be keeping it around for the forseeable future.

I could split off another serial connection from the Ultimeter but that would mean hanging another usb to serial adaptor off of my computer which I would rather not do.

Any suggestions?
