Being new to Linux, I have been simply amazed at some of the simple things in Linux. Packaged with it was Xastir 1.9.4. It loaded and I worked it with no issues. When I found out that Open Source Maps were available and usable in version 1.9.9, I made the switch...or have been trying to. I

The APRS-IS will not rate limit you on unique packets. The high rate data you are talking about won't have a significant impact on the APRS-IS, no where near as much as the impact will be on your local RF network. If you are on 144.390, you'll be more of a problem for those on RF than the APRS-IS
