Thanks fellas, I had already tried removing the filter string thinking maybe it was something with the filter, that wasn't it. after while i stumbled across the aprsfl.aprs2.net server on a google search and tried it. about 10 min after connecting to the server it started downloading stations with the filter in place. xastir is a little slow to start seeing stations on start up but is up and working with that server configuration in place. -- Christopher D.
