    We are seeing a lot of duplicate packets for our area on aprs.fi to
    the point where it is warning "This station is transmitting packets
    at a high rate, which can cause congestion in the APRS network." I
    believe that duplicate packets are dealt with in the APRS-IS network
    (?) so the problem probably doesn't lie with an igate. Is this the
    correct place to report the problem and if not, where should I go.
    Here are the last few reports of my mobile tracker from aprs.fi
    raw:. Just about every packet has a duplicate and I've highlighted
    an obvious pair.<br>
