Somehow I managed not to spot this incoming email, and indeed everything since last Thursday, but yes, this issue was addressed in PR #122 last week. Xastir now recognizes RMC and GGA sentences from any talker by ignoring the two talker id characters (the two right after the $, and right before GGA or RMC). -- Tom Russo KM5VY Tijeras, NM echo "prpv_a'rfg_cnf_har_cvcr" | sed -e 's/_/ /g' | tr [a-m][n-z] [n-z][a-m] _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir
