Re: Incorrect Position on YAAC

Lynn, you called it exactly correct. On Ercan's original screenshot, the I-gate stations were using the green digipeater star icon with the red question mark overlay, indicating a vicinity plot (i.e., a not-so-wild guess as to the location of a station without a position report).?

No station that had sent a real position report message would be using that icon/overlay combination because question marks aren't legal overlay characters; YAAC uses it for exactly that reason to indicate vicinity-plotted stations until it hears a position report about that station itself, when it will locate the station at its reported location instead of the best-guess with the station's correct icon.

Bob Bruninga WB4APR (SK) wrote up the concept of vicinity plotting at

If you don't like vicinity plotting, you can turn it off in the YAAC expert-mode Configuration dialog on the Behavior tab.

Hope this helps.

If it helps diagnose the issue at all, here's where APRSIS32 shows these three stations this morning:


If I had to guess, I would say that YAAC hadn't yet received a position update for the 2 IGates and therefore didn't know exactly where to plot them.
