Decoding of Binary Payloads

[bsyzek]

Thanks for the great module! Am I correct in understanding that the current code does not decode the binary payloads contained in AIS messages 6, 8, 25, and 26?

Hi,

yes you are correct. The payload remains currently unchanged. I stumbled across some weird errors on some messages when I tried to decode their payload. I then decided to leave it like that and never worked on it again. :-D

Tips and PR's improving that are welcome

Thanks for the quick response! It's definitely a tricky problem with so many different types of binary payloads. I might take a stab at it, and if successful I'll definitely submit a PR.

I would love to see it!
