That really won't make any difference... :)

Rotate.aprs:

rotate.aprs.net.au.     60      IN      A       150.101.108.109
rotate.aprs.net.au.     60      IN      A       202.62.137.85

Ok, both .au servers.  That's second.aprs and third.aprs

the aprs2 address:

aunz.aprs2.net.         3600    IN      A       125.236.199.246
aunz.aprs2.net.         3600    IN      A       150.101.108.109
aunz.aprs2.net.         3600    IN      A       202.49.254.23
aunz.aprs2.net.         3600    IN      A       202.62.137.85
aunz.aprs2.net.         3600    IN      A       203.31.7.24

That's second.aprs, third.aprs. some unknown AU server, and two unknown 
NZ servers (one of which used to be third.aprs.net.au).

So any problem with one of those servers will still exist, just that 
you'll hit the issue one in five connects, rather than one in two connects..

Grant: try manually specifying third.aprs.net.au and see how you go - it 
may be that there's an issue on that server?
If third.aprs.net.au plays up, try that 202.49.254.23 address - That 
runs the same software as third - That'll pin down an issue with the 
software
Also, try 125.236.199.246 - that runs the same software as second..

I have a theory that it's an issue with APRSC?  Will be interesting to 
see! :)

BTW, for 'reliable' packet tracing, ignore aprs.fi, use the dump from 
hamtrack...  http://hamtrack.pinegap.net/stationdump.php

In your case Grant, you want
