[aprssig] Unwanted IGATEing

[Wes Johnston]

check the aprs spec, but I'm pretty sure that 3rd party packets are orininating
station and _his_ path, then ":" to separate path/headers from the data
portion, then the "}" character (or the "{"char, this is the part I'm unsure of
from memory), then the 3rd party call sign,path, and ":" and 3rd party's data. 
Everything after the "}" ( or "{" ) is run thru the same packet decoding
routines recursively.  In a nut shell, if you use the log file in any aprs
program, it will have discarded the local station doing the igating's info. 
you_must_ look at the raw output of the tnc!  this can be done in winAPRS under
the menu item "windows->terminal window", or in hyperterminal that comes with
every copy of windows.  Again, reviewing the LOG files or STATION list or
STATION data will not give you the callsign of the IGATEing station.

Then it's a matter of ID'ing the IGATE station and talking him into stopping or
budlisting him.
