Hey Shay -
Nice to see that you are still at it. As you know I've been waiting
for TS5 since I was never able to get reliable data from anyone to run
TS4 and I find the net much more reliable than satellite, cable or FM.
Tried AIQ but Real Time Charting is pretty haphazard. They finally did
get up to 5 days of data put together but it's always a surprise when
everything works. Attitude is much the same as parent Dial Data. That
is - send money and shut up.
The Ensign software that Earl wrote about sounds interesting. Would
love to hear your take on it also.
Best
