Xastir is a very GOOD aprs program but I wish it had the ability to igate to RF
better also. That may be one of its more noticeable deficiencies. I'd also
like to see the ability to add status text, and PHG data when running a WX
station, similar to UI-View. Finally, it's far from my skillset
Hi Guys,
Would it be possible to add the WX format output from the program Weather

Is it possible to send PHG information or status text if you are operating a
weather station with Xastir? If so, how do you do it? If it isn't, which I
suspect, can the authors please include some capability to do this? UI-View
does it. I like Xastir more, but aside from putting the radio

I managed to get Xastir working with OpenStreetMaps. Thanks for the help.
Stellar map interface. Just stellar. It was painful upgrading from CVS, but I
got it done after I had removed a system file and a bunch of core
dependencies and rebuilt the box... lost 2 days on that.
Are there any installation instructions out there for a novice to install
OpenStreetMaps? I have found bits and pieces of what I need to do but many of
you are over my head with the shorthand verbage due to your superior
experience. I am running Xastir 1.9.8 on Debian 5.0.

Hey gents,
A while ago I may have asked this question but I finally got my station

So, which version should I download that contains the modification?
