[aprssig] K6AEP-1 flaking out? or maybe KO6TH?

It looks like his good packet comes out about every 30 minutes and the 
set of weird ones comes out every 32 minutes.  So if you can keep it off 
for maybe an hour and 10 minutes, it'll give two complete cycles without 
your station showing up.

But only do that if your IGate isn't the only one in earshot of any 
particular area!

Thanks for you help in determine what might be happening out there.

PS.  I only noticed it because his station showed up as transmitting an 
"unknown" Mic-E packet.  Even aprs.fi think's it's Mic-E, but with the 
APX201 toCall, I really doubt that it's even a D710!  Certainly not a 
native one transmitting it's own Mic-E packets!

Somehow I don't think W6CX-3 nor WA6TS-1 nor even your station would be 
copying it from that lat/lon either.
