Hi,

In the St. Louis, MO area I see from time to time on my Xastir map (rf only)
a very large rectangle (more than 50 miles in North/South direction) with an
X on the station AC0MW-7.?? The X goes from corner to corner of the
rectangle.?? The X and the rectangle are made of dashes.?? I have been using
APRS since APRSdos and continue to enjoy it.?? The current Xastir map is
shown on my website, www.billbird.com.?? I've tried to discover the answer
on my own but have not been able to.

Thanks and 73,
