Wondering why the ygate does not show on APRS map sites #16

First off, thanks for the work. Using an FTM-400 and it is acting as a gateway just fine. I can see the beacon packets in the log and see them online. However I cannot ever see the actual ygate staion show on the maps like APRS.fi as I have with other versions of the ygate python script. What am I missing? TIA!

Ah snap. I figured it out. My LONG was not correct. As soon as I pasted and hit submit, I saw the error and just fixed it. My bad.
