Hi Curt,

 Thank you for the reply.  I'll have to double check the version when I get
home, but I believe it's FC5.  It had been working great up until recently
(I updated it to one of the Jun builds a couple weeks ago but not sure TBH
when it started acting up.)  It's also just not the first character knocked
off, but also seeing garbage characters as well where it would be some odd
ASCII non-numeric code, several spaces and then the callsign followed by the
rest of the message.  After looking at it a bit yesterday I noticed it was
intermittent, as well as always on the igated messages and never on the
incoming message.  In the mean time I rewrote my app to throw out
bad/invalid callsigns.

What OS?  I'm running three Xastir instances here, one of which is
connected to a full-tilt Firenet feed and has the server ports
enabled.  Telnetting to "localhost 2023" on Linux here shows lots of
packets flying by and the first two characters aren't missing on any
of them near as I can tell.
