OK Gerard, from your reports everything is working as it should. As I explained, it is assumed that each carrier has a unique TACAN frequency. Thus the code uses the first match it comes to. We've added a new carrier_nav.dat file to cvs: "add 'FNS Charles de Gaulle' to the database with TACAN channel 026X" You ought to be able to switch between the 2 using the channel selector in the drop down menu. Check it out and let me know if it doesn't work for you. You can only use nimitz-demo.xml because thats hard coded - the software can't guess which random file name contains carrier info. It used to be called carrier-demo, and perhaps that's a better name for it. If you want 2 carriers (I've tried it and it works, sort of) add another <entry></entry with all the data. Note: you will need to use <wire>wire-1a</wire> etc, otherwise the code gets confused and marks no wires :-). I've asked Mathias to add it to his TODO list. I'd like any feedback you have on this one too.
