[Xastir] Davis Weather APRS Data Streamer

[Robert Grattan]

Tom,

I would be glad to test for you.  I have a Davis VPro2 running into wview (ubuntu 9.04) which sends data to CWOP.  So far, I haven't been very successful in getting the data into xastir which is running on the same box.  Thanks.

Looking at the documentation for the data logger, 
http://www.davisnet.com/product_documents/weather/manuals/07395-219_Adendm_06540.pdf,
it says that ".DsVP" is present at the end of all the strings from the 
logger.  Since that's what my patch looks for to determine that we're dealing
with that unit, I think it's OK.

What exactly are you asking?

I'm going to give Mike a few more days to beta test before I commit the thing.
If anyone else has one of these units, I'll provide the patch for them, too.
