That's odd - the data appearing on the repeater is IGATE traffic
originating from Sydney, and digipeated via 2RAG at Somersby.  All
stations involved in that snippet are FIXED stations and not able to
inadvertantly change freq.

I would suggest that there is a mix happening up there and the APRS digi
at the same site is getting into the voice repeater.  What is the
filtering like up there between the two services ?
