Andrew,

  Very Cool! How about a Web front end for us non Programers to link to?
..

  That would be really nice!

  Keep up the good work

  Regards

  Pete

  I managed to get google earth to work with my linux box which produces a
.kml file that is used by google earth to place an icon on a map

What I intend to do now is get linux and perl to ask findu.com where a
station is and create a live kml file.

Google earth zooms in and "tracks" the object

Example
