If it is off then they will never know it is there. I think it should be on by default and when all those big QUESTION MARK symbols show around the digis (without callsigns) then let them wonder what they are and discover that they are vicinity plots. If they don't like them, then they can turn them off. > Bob doesn't agree with the way I do it, but I render it > 1/2 across the ambiguous position, draw a tight purple > circle around the symbol to indicate that something is > strange here, and (if enabled by the user) > draw a large circle at the ambiguity distance. Again, Id prefer to see the full size circle by default so that they learn what it is, and then they can turn it off when they understand ambiguity plotting. My 2 cents. Bob, Wb4APR
