Known bugs

My code

• Course/speed data from standard compressed position reports doesn't work
• Occasionally, a station will appear on the map, but when clicked gives a "not found" error. Sometimes this is because it's a D-Star or WinLink object, which FindU (source of nearby stations) carries but jFindu (source of object data) does not.
• When querying either a station with an SSID, or an object, the "base" (no SSID) station or object creator may not appear.

Yahoo's code (I can't fix these)

• Sometimes, a recent and very high resolution map of an area may be available, but will only appear sporadically. If you're getting a dusty monochrome image where you know you've seen a high res pic before, try reloading a few times.
