AIS to SK
I installed a USB SDR radio and AIS-catcher, and configured AIS-catcher to send to UDP 10110. SK is receiving/logging 0183 VDM messages but not parsing. Can anyone recommend a plugin that will parse the data? There are lots of AIS plugins on the app store but none seems to be a simple parser--I don't need forwarding etc.

Create a udp nmea0183 connection? I don’t see how the server would be ”receiving/logging” and what that would mean, without any extra config
Forgot to include that part...yes I have a data connection for 0183 UDP port 10110. That's where I'm seeing the messages in the logs. Also, data browser shows the data coming in but it's not being mapped to a path.

Maybe I need a plugin like https://github.com/SignalK/nmea0183-signalk but I'm hesitant because it doesn't show up in the Appstore.
In the Data Browser, top left, did you check the drop down?
Oh wow, each MMSI creates a different context! Is there any way to just see all the vessels nearby and not create a new context for each one?
Not with databrowser, but for example freeboard shows them on the map
