Don't know what to think. My weather stream is getting into the aprs net
stream as viewed on findu, but is not showing up at all on my map in Xastir.
Here's what is supposedly going out:
K4XTT>APRS,TCPIP*,qAC,CWOP-2:@172110z3836.00N/07846.00W_196/002g007t081r000p039P038b09677h68.WD
190
Is there anybody with ideas as to why it is not showing up on the map, and I
have my call and verification number correctly entered. I'm thinking that
I'm not getting in the stream from aprs servers. No filters set on the server
interface and using "second.aprs.net 10152"
What should I be looking for, and thanks in advance
You should see your own Xastir station on it's map. Check your "Station -> Filter Data" and
"Station->Filter Display" menus. If the above _is_ your Xastir station then it's probably
just those local filtering settings.
You say the K4XTT station above is not appearing in Xastir: Should I assume
that it is a different station than the Xastir station? If the weather station
is a separate station and you're not seeing it on the Xastir map, it could be
because:
* You need a range filter in Xastir or some other filter to pull it in from the
servers.
* You're using a range filter in Xastir but not transmitting your location so
the servers don't know what's in range of your Xastir station.
* You're using a range filter in Xastir but the weather station is not within
the range of where you said Xastir was located.
* Some other filter is in place but not performing as you intended when you
wrote it.
* Filter Display or Filter Data settings are wrong for what you're trying to
view.
Those are what I can think of in short order.
Server-side Filter Commands. You use these against port 14580 instead of 10152:

10152 is a full feed. Most people use the filtered port instead these days to
reduce the amount of traffic they're pulling down, often with a range filter.
