         I originally just downloaded the binary setup for Xastir, 
but wanted to add "map caching" this afternoon, so went back and got 
the source file.  Once I got it all set up, the maps have been giving 
me fits, as in taking WAY too long to download.  I'm not sure whether 
I have a "no map" problem, or whether the ISP here was having 
problems -- currently the local ISP is down and I'm using my Sprint 
datacard that I use when I'm on the road.  Thunderstorms are rough 
here tonight.

         Still working on it,
         Earl
