This last is what I've done before.  Create a separate object for
each position in Base-91 compressed mode so that all positions could
be represented.  Yea, it makes a lot of objects, but it does give
you a good picture of where stations get heard.  I didn't do it at
the time but one could change the name of the object to include the
first digi, or add it to a comment.
