ComCap Map

If the channel is processing GPS data, right clicking in the main windows allows the ComCap Map window to be displayed.  The map window is free floating and may remain open while ComCap is hidden.  However, only a single channel may be mapped at a time:

Note this Windows uses Google maps, and requires internet access to download the latest maps, although earlier displayed maps may remain cached if offline.  A red marker indicates a new GPS location.

Locate in Real Time

Tick box that determines whether new GPS location marker should be plotted on the map.

Plot Route
