If you think that's bad, the public copy of the entire Industry Canada licensed frequency database (for every type of radio system, nationwide) comes in a giant space delimited text file with many database fields truncated when they export it from whatever ancient database system they're using. Nevermind that the owner/control entity fields and many other fields also contain spaces. The FCC version which is much more sane and usable is a pipe delimited CSV format file with no fields cut off. On Fri, Dec 9, 2016 at 2:40 PM, <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu> wrote:

Yes. But don’t just put in coordinates... Put in other details and use a standard separator
You want to tell that to the creator of some software I recently encountered that used a non-breaking space rather than a tab, or comma, or other sane values? :)
