Thanks Lynn. Fyi, Xastir is already using that one. It's one of 3 OSM URL's that are still functioning.
I went through the map chooser, and here are the results: Geo files that do NOT work that should be deleted: Online/OSM_cloudmade_1.geo Online/OSM_cloudmade_2.geo Online/OSM_cloudmade_3.geo Online/OSM_cloudmade_998.geo Online/OSM_tiled_osmarender.geo Online/OSM_tiled_skiiing.go Online/OSM_tiled_topOSM_0_relief.geo Online/OSM_tiled_topOSM_1_contour.geo Online/OSM_tiled_topOSM_2_features.geo Online/TXRadar.geo Online/USRadar.geo Online/WMSRadar.go Online/terraserver.geo Online/terraserver-topo.geo Online/terraserver-reflectivity.geo Geo Files that still work and should be retained: Online/OSM_tiled_cycle.geo Online/OSM_tiled_fosm.geo Online/OSM_tiled_mapnik.geo Geo files that I did not look at due to not being in Canada and not feeling like changing my coordinates to put my station in Canada: Online/CanadaTopo250k.geo Online/CanadaTopo50k.geo I modified one of the non-functional OSM geo files to point to the mapquest street map tiles, and it works fine. So I guess I've got the first instance of Xastir running with online mapquest tiles. BR, Lee - K5DAT On Sat, Mar 28, 2015 at 1:03 PM, Lynn W.
