That's the direction we're wanting to go. Yes, that is where I want to go, I would like to be able to dump the APRS data to a db, probably will try to set things up to where only certain calls are dumped to the db because I want to gather this for disaster activities, actually my mapper would be linked to the db and so all data goes into the db and the mapping is done out of the db. That is the way we do RF coverage study data where I work. We dump all of the data captures into a db and then I link the mapper to the db and look at the selected data. -- Chuck Hast To paraphrase my flight instructor; "the only dumb question is the one you DID NOT ask resulting in my going out and having to identify your bits and pieces in the midst of torn and twisted metal."
