Thanks for this.  Actually I have already made those changes to 
/usr/local/share and the two maps DO appear in the Map Chooser but when I 
select either of them all I get is a grey background screen.  All the stations 
are there, just not the map.  Other than worldhi.map, I have two other maps in 
Map Chooser, geogratis.gc.ca and nationalmap.gov, but neither of them give me 
any map.

Make sure Auto Maps is turned off. You may be loading multiple map sets and the 
last one loaded wins.

For raster maps you typically want to only load one. You can then load vector 
maps on top of it.

For vector maps you can load multiples because they don't cover each other up.

It could be something else entirely that's causing your problem, but check Auto 
Maps first.

    Map -> Enable Auto Maps -> OFF

Make sure when you're learning Xastir you only check one map at a time in Map 
Chooser. Once you get the hang of it you can make map stackups that are more 
complicated.
