         Send me a few sample packets, I'd like to compare notes.

         Some of the ones I'm getting are below.  Most don't move -- why do 
I want to know there's a 2-meter repeater on 145.20 in Summerville, 
SC?  Mount Whitney doesn't move, so why do I need an icon on my map for 
it?  Why do I need all these airports marked on APRS since they're already 
in my Jepps charts?

         Look at these packets and you can see a common callsign emerge...
