Default SSA Sailplane Tracker problem

In something close to world record time, SSA Webmaster Doug Easton has
fixed the problem with the page numbering on the SSA SPOT tracking
page.

If you carry a SPOT and have not signed up for the SSA SPOT Tracking
feature consider doing so. The idea of the SSA SPOT page is to provide
easy one stop access to tracking information for both fun and safety
should things go wrong. There are privacy controls if you desire and
it is relatively simple to be listed, something all SPOT equipped
pilots should consider doing.

SSA SPOT page can be found on the SSA home page (www.ssa.org) on the
right hand menue.

The list has grown to 7 pages now! *That's great, unless you're trying
to access page 6. At the bottom of a page, you can select pages
1,2,3,4,5, or LAST.

And, Mark Hawkins' cool SPOT Tracking Map application can also use the
information from the page. If you go to a contest (or if your club
has a tracking map subscription) the local map manager can pull the
relevant data right off the SSA page - no need to re-enter the long
URL string. See HawkeTracking.com for details ;-)
