This is not a valid general statement. APRSISCE/32 supports a
filtered APRS-IS feed for local display without gating anything but
messages addressed to recently heard local stations from the -IS
feed to the local RF environment. Before making statements like
blank filters for IGate clients, it would help to know to which APRS
software is in use.<br>
