In your packet, you would change the "/" character immediately following
the "N" in your latitude to a "\" and the "-" character immediately
following the "W" in your longitude to the lower case "k".
BUT, the symbols are going through a revision and purification right now
and for the software that is able to be modified, no symbols have been
redrawn yet. Stephen Smith, WA8LMF, will be working on the UI-View
symbol set when all the dust has settled. Bob, WB4APR will do the DOS
set. I don't know what other softwares can be changed, if any can be at
all. Right now, best to use the "Jeep" symbol which would be "/" after
the "N" in latitude and a lower case "j" after the "W" in longitude.
Hang in there. We're getting it all sorted out, eliminating dupes etc.
Have fun, Bill, es 73 de Boyd Prestwood K5YKG
