Which is weird cause it looks like XASTIR has tacked on the word emergency

I have forwarded it to the XASTIR programmers to see if they can tell us
under what conditions XASTIR tacks on emergency

Findu does not recognize these as an emergency beacon.  They only have the
word emergency in the comment field.  Per the
APRS spec an emergency beacon should have \ between the lat and long and !
after the long.  These have / and x.
