Yes, everything seems to be correct. Too bad the advanced sample config file
was outdated. In beta version of aprsg it was possible to receive packets
from a TNC running in monitor mode. But then it dawned on me that some APRS
packets do contain non-printable chars, which get altered or don't appear at
all when such packet is shown in monitor mode. As far as I know this is bad,
because IGate should not modify the packet body at all when gating a packet.
So the feature had to go.

The solution here would be to change serialtnc to serialkisstnc for
connection1 and reconfigure TNC into KISS mode.

I'll update the sample config file in next release. Thanks to you Bruce for
reporting the issue.
