The websvn url is for a browser to show.
Try this URL:

   svn checkout http://repo.ham.fi/svn/java-aprs-fap java-aprs-fap

that extracts trunk and possible future brances.

It is still missing parsers for  Object, Item and Telemetry packets.
I have not touched on it for - um - five weeks as I have concentrated
on my Aprx codes.
