[Xastir] New England feed down?

[Mark - N2PGD]

Jim,

newengland.aprs2.net is one of the hubs for the entire tier2 network and
it was struggling to provide feeds to all of the servers AND full feeds
to all the users.  I had to dump the 10152 for users to keep the rest of
the tier2 users happy and had no good way to let everyone know this.
Sorry!  A heads up, the tier2 servers in general are moving away from
providing full feeds and encouraging users to setup a personal filter
instead.  You can find more information about tier2 in general at:

http://www.aprs2.net

and in particular you can find more information about filtered feeds at:

Let me know if you have any questions.

73,

Mark
