Thank you and to all.  I've received numerous screen shots and they all 
look good.  So far, the only platform that doesn't seem to like weather 
objects (as opposed to weather stations) is Kenwood's newest D72.  Not 
all other platforms have been tested yet, but that's probably the least 
expected one to have issues.

I'm currently beaconing a TEST-WX object from KJ4ERJ-AP on APRS-IS every 10 minutes.  If someone wouldn't mind adding a b/KJ4ERJ* to their filter and waiting 10 minutes to see if the object shows up (in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean) and let me know if xastir handles parsing the weather data out of it, I'd appreciate it.
