<div>Because these up to date actively supported programs
don’t do what UI-View does. I have APRSIS32 installed on
one computer here, its neat to look at, but that’s about
it. The mapping sucks, looks blurry and doesn’t have the
detail the map server in UI-View pulls down from the
internet</div>

The latest version of APRSISCE/32 supports additional tile servers,
so if you don't like the default of OpenStreetMap.org, you can set
up your own. But I suspect you just didn't know to hit right arrow
to darken up the maps. APRSISCE/32 focuses on the stations, not the
map, so it run a 50% transparency in the default install. Left
arrow makes it even more transparent (faded) and right arrow makes
the maps darker. See also <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/tile-sets">http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/tile-sets</a><br>

<div>plus it has no support for digi and igate functions that
I can find.</div>

APRSISCE/32 performs IGate functions from RF to -IS automatically
when you create an RF Port. It also defaults to gating messages
from -IS to RF for recently heard local stations. The next major
body of work will be bringing filtered additional -IS to RF IGating
with tunable rate limits to avoid saturating the channel when the
packet rates change on the APRS-IS.<br>
<br>
Digipeating has been support for a long time now, but it currently
requires editing the XML configuration file to enable it. The next
major body of work will be enhancing this by adding more friendly
configuration dialogs as well as making the digipeater configuration
port-specific. Cross-Port repeating is also planned in the upcoming
changes. See also <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/digipeating">http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/digipeating</a><br>
<br>
If you haven't looked at it recently, or aren't running the current
version (as easy as bringing up the About box), give it another
try. And if you post your comments to the APRSISCE group, your
desires will be used to guide future development as well. See also:

Oh, and did I mention it's free? And the maps are free too.<br>
