There has been some discussion between local APRS Digi sysops and one  
of them made this observation:

I manage the NT4UX-1, -2, -3 digis in the Middle Tennessee area.

NT4UX-1 uses a KPC3 v8.2 and includes the following settings:
     MYALIAS OHX
     UIDIGI ON WIDE1-1, WIDE4-4, WIDE5-5, WIDE7-7
     UIFLOOD WIDE,30,ID
     UITRACE TN,30

NT4UX-2 and NT4UX-3 are both using  UIdigi v1.9b3.
They both have:
     UIFloodCall            =       TN
     UITraceCall            =      WIDE

UITrace, UIFlood, and UIDigi all do callsign substitution


Below is some additional traffic I have observed from my house using  
xastir.
It looks like things a working but I don't understand the packets  
with WIDE2* and WIDE3*.
Which digipeater sent them?
Should they not have had a callsign substituted instead?
