I don't believe this is an echo problem.  Rather, I believe F5RVX is
connected to a Firenet server and to a standard APRS-IS server.  I think
that Xastir is improperly gating packets between the servers.  I hope
that this bug will be fixed in Xastir.  In the mean time, contact F5RVX
directly at ph.ttv at free.fr to request he reconfigure his Xastir station
for proper operation.
