If your interested, the source code on the TAPR site (under PIC-E) is a
derivative of the differential compass idea presented in the UofM paper I was
actually the inventor of that idea (which I had at Dayton in 1999, and yes,
I am p*ssed that the instructor didn't credit me..)
See:
ftp://ftp.tapr.org/picsig/software/a-compass.zip
This would allow you to construct, for well under $70, a electronic flux gate
compass.

Seen today at my local xxxxxxxxxxx they have their DeLorme dash-mounted GPS
units on clearance for $xx.xx and was wondering if anyone had tried one of
these units as I couldn't get any info from the manual as to if it was NMEA
compliant or some other data type.

Sorry for the OT.
I obtained a T-1021A Signal Generator, that was made for Motorola by a
company called "McGraw Edison". That is all the info I could find on the
case and I am looking for any information in the way of a service or
owner's manual or any info at all on it. The generator appears to be in
working order.
If anyone on this list knows of this test equipment, please email me off the
list.
Thanks and 73

Subject: Wx message filtering - one more time

One more try to see if we can help out the folks with D700's that
are having the message buffers filled.
A scheme for gating wx announcements to RF that wouldn't clutter
the limited buffer was discussed here some time ago.
Apparently we're not set up correctly yet as folks are still having
trouble.
Here's a typical wx packet:
SECIND>APRS,qAO,WXSVR::SKYSEC :Flx... A... BK........
PlnK........Ep200_244a
Now, as I understand it, if we were to send that out so the Packet ">TO"
field was something other then APxxx then the altnet mail groups feature on
the D700 would allow users to not see them. Is that the change we need to
make?
SECIND>WXSVR,qAO,WA7NWP-17::SKYSEC :Flx... A... BK........
PlnK........Ep200_2
If so, it's time for a tweak to the servers. I'd just like to make sure I
have it right before I dive in.
73,
Bill - WA7NWP

No one's D700 should receive the below WX message unless that person has
taken the step of adding SKYSEC to his message groups already.

No, ALTNET is exclusive. If one sets an ALTNET then he will receive it
but NOTHING else.
If someone is receiving the above, then he either has wildcarded his MSG
Groups so that he hears everyting, or he has added SKYSEC to this message
groups.
