I believe you're describing the following feature described at
http://www.aprs-is.net/IGateDetails.aspx
Gate all packets to RF based on criteria set by the sysop (such as
callsign, object name, etc.).
In APRSISCE/32, I'm calling that "filtered" -IS to RF gating. This is
not required but is allowed by the specification. What I've read that
xastir implements for -IS to RF gating is described as:
Gate message packets and associated posits to RF if all of the
following are true:
1. the receiving station has been heard within range within a
predefined time period (range defined as digi hops, distance, or
both).
2. the sending station has not been heard via RF within a predefined
time period (packets gated from the Internet by other stations are
excluded from this test).
3. the sending station does not have TCPXX, NOGATE, or RFONLY in the
header.
4. the receiving station has not been heard via the Internet within a
predefined time period.
A station is said to be heard via the Internet if packets from the
station contain TCPIP* or TCPXX* in the header or if gated
(3rd-party) packets are seen on RF gated by the station and
containing TCPIP or TCPXX in the 3rd-party header (in other words,
the station is seen on RF as being an IGate).
Where "message packets" are the APRS-specified messages defined by
datatype : (colon) and described in Chapter 14 of aprs101.pdf.

Hi Lee....im wondering if we are both thinking the same thing about
"messages" that are gated by an I-gate
the igate that VK4ZZ puts out takes the "beacons" that stations send
to APRS-IS
from within a radius of his station and retransmits them via RF to a
local
repeater which repeats them to the local area...his I-gate is down at
the
moment for repair and im attempting to provide backup in the meantime
Aprsg is setup to do what his station does .....take the "beacons"
from the Inet
and send them out on RF to the repeater VK4RAT-3 ...its doing a very
good job
of it..
the setup in Xastir or other igate software i havent found to do
this....are they
supposed to do it and if not why not
