The last two days I've been hammering on the nav database code. My first goal is to directly support Robin's native nav database file format. In his latest data release, he separates out dme, gs, loc, and marker beacon transmitters rather than lumping them all into a single "ILS" record. This new data structure prompted me to do some code restructuring so that internally these are all kept as separate lists and searched and handled separately. This had a cascading affect on the code so I've gone and "touched" a lot of nav related code in a lot of places. I think it's all coming back together now and seems to be working nicely. I'm going to do some more testing and then commit tonight or tomorrow. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up so you can watch for this commit and make sure I didn't miss anything.

As an added bonus, the new data (and code) adds DME bias so these will all now read as they do in real life.

Regards,

Curt.
