I spoke with ww6jc last night on the phone (super nice guy, just
getting started in aprs), and he said his copy of uiview is connected
to montana.aprs.net:14580. Could it be that Curt's problem station,
and the one mentioned from canada are both connected to this same
hub? I asked ww6jc to connect to a different aprs server (kc4pl's
server that is local to South Carolina) for the time being to help
diagnose this problem.<br>

<pre wrap="">I have observed this for stations just east of Vancouver BC. When
I get a chance will look at some log files I had and one that was
sent to me and try and pin down which of several IGates it could
be. I suspected it could be the time being off at one of the
IGates but haven't had a chance to spend look at it properly yet.
I am one of the IGates involved, but my computer time is within a
minute.

One of the reasons I backed my path for my mobile down was that
there were igates up there that were putting my packet into the
internet delayed, which combined with the igating down near Seattle
made my path all screwy. By shortening my path I avoided a lot of
that.
It shouldn't be a time-setting on the computer that's the problem,
as Xastir (what I was monitoring with via an internet connection)
and findu.com ignore the timestamps. It's a delay in feeding the
packet to the internet. Whether that's an RF delay or a computer
processing delay, I can't tell.
