Network count in file and Wigle don't match

I just noticed after uploading a file that the network count in my file and the network count shown by Wigle aren't matching. I was wardriving with Kismet on my Mac and saving to .nettxt file format. The file shows 4,212 networks, but Wigle shows just 2,593 networks. The transaction ID was 20101105-00173.

There was a bug in there on SSID parsing, so thanks for the heads up. You'll show more networks in that file now. The numbers still won't match up because that file records all 'probe' networks, which are clients searching for networks, not base stations.

Awesome. The numbers look good now. Thanks for the quick reply and this project as a whole. It's a nice distraction for me and a good excuse to see my whole region.
