Re: Trouble displaying maps in Xastir.....

 

Hi Philip,
Cheers for the response.
What I should've added was that each time I try and put something on the
mailing list it never goes on.
I have a few maps thanks to a local ham here in the UK, but each time I
go to use them, it just shows them up as black boxes, so at the moment,
I'm using the world outlined map.
Is there a reason for the maps showing as black boxes?

Thanks in advance....
