The APRS Protocol Reference Document, chapter 10, page 42: Mic-E Data Format 
explains that.  For mic-e the destination field get a different use.

In the case of the ISS beacon, P0PPP0 is allowable and decodable.

As previously pointed out, UI-View has a lock out for any beacon that has 
both 00 N/S and 00 E/W.  Most other programs, and the Kenwood TH-D7 and 
TM-D700 pair, will decode it.  It is a D700 sending it down to us.  If only 
they would hook up a GPS to it!
