I had to recode for the syntax difference but it worked great... see
it here; http://kaiserklan.com/snapshot.png
Thanks for the help Curt.

I'm working in a bike ride Sunday the 31st and I was sent a .pos

not sure how.
It looks like this;

A1!3851.26N/09453.59W/ 151st & New Century Parkway
A2!3851.28N\09454.55Wa 151st & Moonlight Rd
Is all I need to do is convert it to look like this to make it work
with Xastir?
;A1*311530z3851.26N/09453.59Wh151st & New Century Parkway
;A2*311530z3851.28N/09454.55Wa151st & Moonlight Rd
You've got the right idea but I'd have to look in the spec to see
the exact format, or turn off compressed objects and create a few,
then look in the file.
Xastir doesn't handle .pos files directly.
Be aware that creating objects in the manner you're describing will
cause Xastir to own them and therefore try to transmit them unless
you turn off object/item transmit on the Interface menu.
