I have seen mixed reports where some AIS transponders filter out their own position report and others leave it in. If the later is the case, simply unchecking "show" in the AIS panel list of targets will turn of its display.
OK. I would see that as a potential troubleshooting problem-one could be getting the VDO from your own box and not realize there was a problem with the receiver as MacENC would be indicating proper reception, yes?
