Which reminds me, I plan on tackling AIS in the near future (into Xastir).
Just have to figure out if I can receive AIS from my usual locations. I'm
not THAT far from Puget Sound so there should be some traffic to hear, even
if just the ferries. I'm near the Mukilteo ferry, so if those things
transmit a few miles, should give me data to test with.
