Thank you. I can do that. I can see to try to make a file bigger than 2 GB would be a problem to be able to download. I have a NAS drive where I have setup another user to upload to it at times but anything over 2 GB and it asks the person to install the agent. I have installed the agent for it and it still will not do more than 2 GB. So your input is very valuable to me. Thank you.
I consider my query solved.

Raspbian has Xastir in its package repository, so all that's needed is "sudo apt-get install xastir". This, of course, does not include any detailed map package specific to your area, so you'll need to download that separately. This blog post explains the whole process of getting Xastir running on RPi: http://m0hpj.wordpress.com/2012/11/16/aprs-on-raspberry-pi-with-xastir/ These maps may interest you, although expect them to be very slow on RPi: http://downloads.cloudmade.com/americas/northern_america/united_states/washi ngton/washington.shapefiles.zip Tom KD7LXL _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
