No, it is currently *NOT* do-able in Xastir. Once you set the station as a WX station, the posit text is too long to have any status or other information in it. This is also a problem insofar as weather stations also have no PHG information attached. Other programs do this by sending out a separate posit with PHG and status info at some interval in addition to the WX reports. Or at least, this is the way that packets from other stations using other software show up when I've seen them running as weather stations. If Xastir had an option to send additional status posits every nth real posit, it would do the trick. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM In some cultures what I do would be considered normal. -- Ineffective daily affirmation _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
