I was just watching Insomniac with Dave Attell on Comedy Central. Tonight he
was in New Mexico and he ran across a group of hams doing a late night
transmitter hunt. No mention of Amateur Radio was made (probably edited) but
I found it very funny that a comedy show about drinking covered this, must
have been the geek factor. He actually went for a little ride during the
hunt. I don't know if this show will make it on PST time but maybe some of
the Central and West coast people can catch it.

I spent a couple of hours this evening setting up and loading eight new
maps for the tracking and the activity locator queries. I flipped coasts and
did a bunch for the 'left coast' this time as well
We have 'greater metropolitan area' maps for
Seattle-Tacoma
Los Angeles
San Francisco
Chicago
Salt Lake City
Dallas-Fort Worth
There is a slightly larger scale map covering
Vancouver-Tacoma-Seattle
A two state map for
New Hampshire-Vermont
They are all available on the 'activity locator query on the main APRS
Search page as well as in the various dropdowns on the track page. I used he
activity locator to pick stations for each map to plot tracks and within the
small amount of testing they seem to plot OK.

<http://www.wulfden.org/APRSTracking.shtml>
I am then gonna get down to the lesser travelled areas for which I have
requests.
Anyone in a large metro area w/o maps available let me know if you want em.
I will give maps serving the largest groups some priority. Boston? Miami?
New Orleans? St Louis? Let me know!
cheers ... 73 de brian, n1bq

I have a GEO file and corresponding map for the greater Boston area
available at my website. As long as traffic volume isn't too big, feel
free to link to it for your FINDU experiments. The GEO file is at
http://pa3eug.webhop.org/ma495-2.geo (the greater I-495 area around
Boston), the corresponding map is at
http://pa3eug.webhop.org/ma495-2.gif. You can use it like this (change
"pa3eug-9" for your call...):

3eug.webhop.org/ma495-2.geo"&start=24. For more examples, see my

I got a real kick out of it! So tell me how much was edited out ? Did you
guys do a hunt at night just for the TV show or is it common ? I would
guess night hunts are good since traffic is low.
I was waiting to see an APRS screen but all I caught was some sort of GPS
mapping software application.
