Hi Jacob,

in your /home/<user>/.xastir/config directory, create a file called:

nws-stations.txt

In that file, one per line, add the "TO:" calls of the weather info you 
want to gate to RF. As of yet, there's no wildcarding, so you'll have to 
be singularly specific.

Here's mine:

IGUP
RIWSVR
RIWTOR
RIWWSW
RIWFFA
RIWFFW
RIWNPW
RIWRFW
RIWFLW
CYSNPW
CYSSVR
CYSWSW
CYSTOR
NG7T-3
KC7ZRU-3
KC7ZRU-6
K7YE-3
K7YE-2
KIDS
CQ
WY


Here, you can see that I gate specific info from the Chyenne and 
Riverton, WY NOAA offices. Then some of my local buds that show up on 
APRS now and then. Hey, gotta generate some traffic here somehow.

IGUP is Joel's beacon - it sends the 'I Gate Up' beacon out to RF - lets 
everyone know that the I-gate is working.
