The USPS data is out of date. Zip 95467 isn't in the right place, and has
no city name. It should be right near 95461, instead it's someplace out in
the ocean. The USPS data should update at least once a year. 95467 is a
couple of years old now.
This does look nice. I would leave the Expert Mode turned on all the time,
to verify one's own lat/long in the display, even if it's not going to be
modified, but then I'm a GPS nut, so I know my lat/long.
The angle view looks strange, with 180 at the top, but I suppose that makes
sense for a geo-stationary view of things, where the equator is the primary
target.
The display didn't work properly with a remote desktop connection. The
expert mode was crunched under the main panel, but that probably has to do
with resolution differences, and would not be a problem if you just left
expert on all the time.
