Apologies...yes, I referenced installing Xastir but it was in reading 
the instructions on Xastir documents, talking about Soundmodem. Yes, 
this is installing soundmodem for use with Xastir.

In working the first command, it references .013 version.

I will check the other dependencies and follow-up.
