Live-updating GR2Analyst / GRLevelX placefile URLs

How to use

Copy a URL below and paste it into GRLevelX under Placefile Manager → Add New Placefile → URL. GRLevelX will poll the URL on its own interval; the server generates fresh content every request. Do not download the file — use the URL directly so the overlay stays live.
