SatGate worked after I made changes to the SatGate2/IGate Settings tab, changing the “Gate only these” list to be RS0ISS*. (That did not allow PSAT-1 to route through as you might expect — see below).
Immediately after a pass of ISS, T2SOCAL status showed the following status under my call. It showed that I was a validated station, had been online 36 minutes, and was last heard from 29 minutes ago. I was known to be running the UISSSatGate software, and had IGated a total of 7 packets, 6 of which were duplicates:
I checked for Raw Packets on APRS.fi for each callsign in my igated.txt log file, and only one showed that I had routed it as a SGate; one from WB2CMF:
2016-05-31 20:22:09 EDT: WB2CMF>APRS,RS0ISS*,qAR,WB4SON:=4050.03N/07303.51W- Hi from Farmingville, NY
The other six forwarded packets had all been duplicated by someone else. For example, consider a packet from KE4DV that appeared in my igated.txt log file. When I checked out the Raw Packets on APRS.fi, sure enough, it had been routed by WA8LMF-SG:
2016-05-31 20:20:58 EDT: KE4DV>APX206,RS0ISS*,qAR,WA8LMF-SG:=/;`mL;1tL- Hello from Seaford, VA FM17te
Before heading off to bed, I changed the IGate to “Gate All”, and now I see PSAT-1 packets routing through — Look at the latitude/longitude change in 63 seconds (from 34N/31W to 25N/28W):
