[Xastir] Fwd: Bug#952116: xastir: Impossible to transmit due to malformed TOCALL

[David A Aitcheson]

David,

I did a "update-xastir" using the script included in the source code
that gets the latest and greatest from Github via git at 10:57 EST today.

My OS is Ubuntu 14.04.06?-LTS. Yes, I know it is beyond EOL.

This is the best I can do given the tools and scripts I have to work with.

Given that it is "illegal" (just like my saying my callsign at the end
of every voice transmission has been deemed illegal) I might as well
just give up on Ham Radio all together.

KB3EFS OUT
