Hi.....agree that update would be good
ability to have an included igate that can be configured
to my knowledge linux only has 3 igate programs worth looking at
aprsg,aprx2,dixprs....the only one ive got working is aprsg....the other
two i cant get to work with a AX25 port and a TNC-x...at least i havent
got the configs correct will keep trying.

Okay everyone; we have a release about to drop and we might as well FIX
SOME PROBLEMS that have languished way to long!
Specifically some of the online map ".geo" files that are built in to
the program that DO NOT work; such as:
Online/CanadaTopo250k (currently only a
placeholderfile in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps)
Online/CanadaTopo50k (currently only a
placeholderfile in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps)
Online/OSM_tiled_osmarender
Online/OSM_tiled_skiing
Online/OSM_tiled_topOSM_0_relief
Online/OSM_tiled_topOSM_1_contour
Online/OSM_tiled_topOSM_2_features
Online/TXRadar (points to
http://mesonet.tamu.edu which appears to be abandoned)
Online/USRadar (points to
http://mesonet.tamu.edu which appears to be abandoned)
Online/WMSRadar (points to
http://mesonet.tamu.edu which appears to be abandoned)
Online/terraserver-reflectivity (currently only a
placeholderfile in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps)
Online/terraserver-topo (currently only a placeholder
file in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps)
Online/terraserver-urban (currently only a placeholder
file in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps)
Online/terraserver (currently only a placeholder
file in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps)
I remember a discussion thread that some of the "OSM_tiled_*" are
possibly no longer available from a while ago; should we consider
dropping those map "geo" files from the source and thus clean up the
maps presentation view for newer and future users?
The same should be considered for all of the "Placeholder" .geo files
and the MesoNet related Radar.geo files in my opinion.
Others have proposed fixes to the missing radar screen availability that
do work and are acceptable IMO. In the case of Online/USRadar the patch
on SourceForge presented by Kevin Otte N8VNR (see
http://sourceforge.net/p/xastir/patches/3/) works 'FB' on V2.0.5 as does
a large group of files created/modified by Kevin W Paetzold K1KWP that
allows one to select any individual Radar site. I have lost track of
where I got those files for the moment but am still researching.
