You can go ahead and turn your IGate back on. I think I just
figured out what's happening! Those packets are something trying to
use Konverse mode to command a TNC, but the TNC is just transmitting
the commands as the payload of a packet. Consider:<br>

The first packet is "K" to put the TNC into Converse mode.<br>
<br>
The second packet is the command to set the Unproto to SXUQXT
(probably 1/2 of the Mic-E coordinates) Via WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1.<br>
<br>
The third packet is the other 1/2 of the Mic-E coordinate which is
why <a href="http://APRS.FI" target="_blank">APRS.FI</a> complains about it. The first half has been replaced by
APX201.<br>
<br>
It's definitely coming from the source and not being mucked about by
anything in between, IMHO. It's just a waste of good RF bandwidth
until he gets it fixed!<br>

the strange packets repeat in a strange pattern and are
entering the APRS-IS via different IGates and RF paths, I
more suspect it's actually coming over the air from his
station. I just sent an e-mail to his QRZ.com address.<br>
<br>
Actually, if you take your IGate down for a while, we can
see if other IGates consistently gate the same stuff which
would leave your station completely off the hook and point
even more positively to a problem at the source.<br>

Um, I don't know. He does seem to be moving a bit
fast, though he's not going anywhere. It's your

Is there anything I can gather for you by way of
