Yes, by double clicking on the station in the stations list it will 
re-center and the station icom moves (tracks) with the updated position 
but the map does not re-adjust ( as it did when tracking another mobile 
unit transmitting gps strings) It won't track center, I keep driving off 
the map. In order to keep my station Icon in the center I have to keep 
double clicking the station Icon. ( not a good situation when driving) hihi
And yes I would agree that making track center as default makes a lot of 
sense.

Thanks
