<pre wrap="">the random synchrnonicity of things just amazes me, sometimes. I
started running aprsce just yesterday and started map hunting. i found
the ones on the TAPR site and also found these:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://radioroom.org/public/APRS/Maps/">http://radioroom.org/public/APRS/Maps/</a>
they''re substantially larger because of the detail, tho'

You didn't mention what format they were in. They're all ZIP files,
so one would have to download a file to figure it out.

<br>
The map files within the zip files have the extension .PDB<br>
<br>
There seem to be two parallel directories of maps on the site:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://radioroom.org/public/APRS/Maps/">http://radioroom.org/public/APRS/Maps/</a><br>
<br>
and <br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://radioroom.org/public/APRS-Maps/">http://radioroom.org/public/APRS-Maps/</a><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The contents of these two directories overlap but are not identical. <br>
<br>
Although the zip files are dated 2004 or 2005, the map files within
them are dated 1999 or earlier. <br>
