Of course, if you watch the pot it will not boil....

This morning it worked fine.  The only change was a reboot (to mess
with some windows junk), no code changes.  I am using gpsd for the gps
(on a usb-serial adapter) with a 5 second update, and a kpc3+ on the
real serial port (normal serial tnc, no kiss) with smart-beaconing.  I
think the difference is that yesterday I had xastir running for 24
hours or so before connecting any interfaces, so I think the expire
timeouts are interfering with the tracklogs.  I had seen this before,
there was some strange interaction relating to what you heard first, a
digi from the tnc or the gps.

More testing tonight on the way home.... :)
Chris.
