My only worry would be whether it’s the aarch64 (Arm) version or the x64 version. I can’t seen an ARM release for v16 of the JDK on the ?website. ?It looks like they only started with the ARM builds as of v17. ?If that’s the case then you’re running it under Rosetta 2 (x64 emulation), which would slow it down.
I would uninstall the v16 jdk and install the v17 aarch64 version. ?I’d stay away from the v21-LTS for the moment, there seem to be some breaking changes in that version.

Re: next build#193 of YAAC, created 2024-Jan-20
Actually, if you can send me that startup log, that would help immensely in debugging the problem, since I don't have a copy of your hardware to replicate it. You can find the log in your log directory in the file YAAC.out.

Re: next build#193 of YAAC, created 2024-Jan-20
FWIW, may be not related, but I have been seeing a lot of complaints recently from users of MacBooks that various ham applications are not working correctly. I'm wondering if there has been some recent update to the OS that does something different to files.
Just a thought.

Probably because there isn't a feature in core YAAC to automatically open a GPX (or KML) map drawing at YAAC startup. If YAAC is shut down, you presently have to manually reload any map drawings at YAAC restart from the File->Load menu. However, the routes used by the Dynamic Objects plugin can be persisted over YAAC restarts. So, if you install that plugin, and load your GPX file as a route rather than a plain map drawing overlay, you can specify that the route is persisted. Hope this helps.

New Version 1.0 (1.8.0_331) Issues
I’ve been running YAAC for many, many years so am pretty accustomed to having no issues with updates but this version?1.0 (1.8.0_331) is the exception. I did this update from the Help==>Check for Updates menu item as I’ve done many times before. I’m running it on a M2 MacBook Air, lots of disk space, lots of RAM, Sonoma 14.2.1.?
The update seemed to go just fine as it always does. But on launch the map window opens but no maps or banners or buttons or anything open with it. There is also no menu bar opened with it, pretty much just a white page the size of what the map should be.
If I go back to the previous version of 16-Jul-2023 everything opens correctly and all functionality is restored.?
Has anyone experienced this issue and if so how did you recover from it?
Thanks...

Re: Unknown zoneType='C' for advisory...
Yes, this fixed the issue. I really wish there was a decent way of scripting downloading and keeping these files up to date.

Re: YAAC and AIS-Catcher?
How embarrassing. You found a bug. Lots of the code in the NMEA0183OverTcp port driver was copied from the APRS-IS port driver, and I forgot to take out the callsign check. And I don't have a TCP-based NMEA-0183 data source to test this code with. :-( I will have a fix out very soon.
