Wondered if all the gps formats are supported, The same transmission 
shows up on aprs.fi and Jfindu ok. However today with v 0.2.8b1 on xp 
laptop, with repeater connected to centos5 repeater at home, I saw this 
api gps-a string .

10:22:59: GPS: (Invalid GPS data)
CQCQCQ->CQCQCQ (chat: 
$$CRCF608,KJ4VO>GPS-AJC-2820:/002258h3412.70N/08402.44W>/Mark  KJ4VO

The ¨sniff packets¨ data feature showed the actual gps string above. 
However as deemed invalid it was not viewable on d-rats mapview?

The I saw this;

10:24:34: GPS: (Invalid GPS data)
CQCQCQ->CQCQCQ (chat: 
$$CRC4E2E,W6OB>API282,DSTAR*:/002459h3841.28N/12121.94W>040/029/ )
 
10:25:03: GPS: W6OB reporting 38.6880,-121.3657 at 0 ft at 10:24:59 (040) - 
7185.3 mi away @ 53.3 degrees

 which seems an invalid, then a valid stream from same station.
