I've seen stacks as high as 5 at one precise location (3 bands of D-star repeater, WX, and digi) in my immediate area. Still trying to decide whether I should sort particular types of stations to the top of the stack, or just leave it arbitrary.

Just display the most recently-received on top.  Over time, the user will see 
the symbol/callsign flag changing periodically as a new posit comes in,  and 
realize there is a stack at that point.

Or make like a photo frame and change the displayed symbol/call every five 
seconds or so in rotation.
