You're using Tier 2 servers, right?

Sometimes, I'd like to bring up xastir on my laptop and connect to an

'authentacate' myself with my callsign and passcode.

do you have a position-dependent filter?

I had the same problem, until I figured out that with my filter to
only show me stations near my position (the r filter?) I needed to
send a position report for the filter to have enough data to work.

I had discovered that a while ago, so I converted to the 'a' filter where I explicitly declare the bounds. But yesterday, I found that even an 'a' filter, or even the unfiltered 'firehose' feed was silent until I entered my passcode.
