The whole point is that APRS-over-VARA? DOES
NOT use classic AX.25 packet as it's transmission
mode.? Thus the Soundmodem, which only decodes AX.25 packets, is
useless for receiving APRS-over-VARA.??
You need to use the VARA soundcard soft-modem instead, linked to
an APRS application like PinPoint, YAAC, APRSis323, UIview, etc.?

Note that unlike the Soundmodem, the VARA modem does not have an
internal display of the decoded raw packets. You need to have an
external APRS application linked to it to see what is going on.
P.S. ? your attached screen shots, apparently captured with a
cell phone, are far far too large -- 4000x3000 pixels (probably
the native resolution of? the phone's cam).? You need to downsize
these radically before emailing them.??
All cell phone mail apps have provisions for downsizing photos
before sending them - reduce them to something like 1388x720 or
800x600 before mailing.
