There's already a bit of debug code in there for this specific
purpose.  Uncomment lines 987 and 988 of db.c and recompile /
reinstall.  Xastir will then print info about what caused the popup
to the xterm.  Here's what the lines look like:


    printf("%05d:%9s:%c:%c:%9s:%s:%s\n",
        distance, call_sign, type, from, from_call, data, seq);
