[wxqc] Weatherbonk and Yahoo Maps

Scott : And the others having position problems >> There is 3 different types of GPS readings for station location used by Davis, APRS, & Google. The way I did it was to read my GPS at the station site and put in that reading in your registered location on your QC registration page. My map location was still a bit off. I went to the sateillite map and zoomed in as far as it would go and I dragged the pointer with my call sign right on the spot I mounted the station on our Condo roof. Then I went over to the info on the left center of that page where you see in blue and underlined "send the updated information" Click on that. For the past year my location has been right on the money.
