<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Wes,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't see what you are talking about. I
compared the Google map with my Precision Mapping 6.0 map and they seem to be
the same except that just north east of the end of the street where you have the
VOR symbol the Precision map shows a little peak called Sand Mountain.
Google names some of the streets that Precision does not name.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Guys, I just created an object in aprs that
represents the location of the airport VOR in a nearby town. I then went
to findu to look it up and found that google blanked out one tile on their
satellite photo map.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Check it out...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Select hybrid map and zoom way in. Nice to
know that google is helping to keep us safe from the bad guys. I don't
suppose they could find the VOR stations in the same database I did, eh?
And what difference would it make if they could see a photo of it?
Sheesh.</FONT></DIV>
