[Xastir] NWS objects

[Greg Jurrens]

Thanks for the work on this part of the code.  

Does anyone know what the designators are that are sent to show the actual storm location?  I've seen them come up before but don't remember. I know it's a series of numbers plus a time/date stamp.  Also, we're in both Tornado and Hurricane country so I'd hoping we can use this new feature to gate those out the RF world here in Austin.  If there is a definitive list somewhere, I'd appreciate it.

73,
Greg
