For the Toporama maps we first snag a custom .geo file using a URL
something like this:

<http://mm.aprs.net/toporama.cgi?set=50|lat=44.59333|lon=-75.72933|width=800|height=600|zoom=1>

but of course depending on your center/zoom/scale, then we use that
.geo file to go snag the actual map from the URL listed in the .geo
file.  Check your ~/.xastir/tmp directory for a "map.geo" file to
see if you're able to fetch that initial GEO file.

You can also try putting that .geo file (if you find one) in your
maps directory, index it, then see if Xastir will load it.
