APRS Objects are being posted to the APRS-IS by Winlink. I tried to
get station info on a Canadian callsign and noticed the "FCC" button
lit up instead of the "RAC" button. This is because the originating
"station" posting them is "APWL2K" instead of a Canadian callsign.
Very confusing!
Xastir sees the "A" in the origination station field and assumes a
U.S. callsign posted the object.
I'd rather not do this:
Add a special-case to look for "APWL2K" in the originating station
field: If found use the Object name as the callsign instead.
Any ideas for fixing this?
