[aprssig] MySQL date

[Andrew Rich]

But they are - people running APRS servers like findu aprs.fi use MySQL 

Silence ? I have had great success - there are some reall smarties on here 

And besides - the output benefits HAM RADIO

  Not trying to be rude Andrew, but you've asked programming related questions here in the past and have been met with silence. 

  Wouldn't it make sense to ask these to a discussion list where these questions are on topic?

  Hello

  Trying to work out a date diff function for APRS sats

  The time diff is showing as getting "smaller" not bigger even though my times are getting further apart

  select timediff('2009-11-08 08:20:39','2009-11-07 19:04:22')

  ISS Last Heard
  13:16:17 

  select timediff('2009-11-08 08:20:39','2009-11-07 19:06:10')

  ISS Last Heard
  13:14:29 

  Even when I reverse the times I get the same result, just negative

  I would have expected it to increase as the difference gets bigger between the two dates

  "LAST HEARD HH:MM:SS" is my goal
