APRSD config was [OZAPRS] Findu and Email Unreliable ?

[geoff]

I've been following for a while - just nothing to contibute :-)

The filters should allow messages for any VK or ZL to pass through - 
including ACK's to messages originating in VK.   I will re-check the setup

on the 10153 filters, but what you could try is connecting to port 10152 -

this is an UNFILTERED port, and see if you have the issues there.

You mentioned however that you got the ACK message when you were connected

directly to the VK APRS-IS severs on 10153 ??   So the ACK does get
through 
to you but just not out to RF ??
