[Xastir] Xastir 1.9 and Fedora 7 build-up

[Richard Polivka, N6NKO]

All is running well now. I am committing bit-banging abuse to Gerry's 
server getting the state map.

Also, I am running a GlobalSat BT-359 Bluetooth GPS receiver and it is 
feeding my location to the GPS. I am not using gpsd either.

So far, so good. Now to see where it all leads now.

73 from 807,

Richard, N6NKO

P.S.: Mom Nature wussed out! Huge bad boy storms predicted and all we 
get is some lame clouds. Pretty sunset though.
