Sometimes, I'd like to bring up xastir on my laptop and connect to an internet server just to see what's going on in the neighborhood. I've found, however, that I don't get any data from the aprs-is unless I 'authentacate' myself with my callsign and passcode. I thought that was only supposed to be necessary in order to inject data to the APRS-IS, but I find that I get no stations at all displayed unless I authenticate. This is both on port 23000 and 14580. Is this by design, or am I missong some critical piece of information?
