[Xastir] I finally got it!

[Michael Lewis]

Ok maybe I got a tad too excited I now have the splitter connected and I 
don't think I need to exit xastir and reload it when  I connected the 
splitter cable? Because it's acting the same way again about how it wont 
show packets in Xastir and I don't have a lock on GPS right now so I 
can't transmit to test.

My ABAUD is 19200 and the same in Xastir and BBAUD is 4800.
