    That's what I want: relay something I have heard on 2 m on the 70 cm port.
    Maybe an idea for a new feature.

    A UI frame announcing someone's position.

    I have ticked the box that says "enable Inet->RF and RF->Inet
    traffic". This looks like a nice feature. It would be good to make some
    meaningful use of this.

    Any local Inet gates, in this part of the woods? I don't want to
    antagonise the locals by re-transmitting US summer-time WX data :-)

    What I meant was: a work-around to give me right-click functionality :-)
    (which worked in earlier versions of XASTIR). I'll have a play with a
    PS/2 full-size external keyboard.
