I have my station setup to "Allow RF -> IS gating" and I have ports setup for both RF and IP, and both have Transmit Enabled. Looking at the Raw Packet sniffer with the filter set to packets from the KISS-over-TCP port (which is RF right?) I can see that I've been hearing stations. But if I go to APRS.fi and look at my station, it doesn't list anything under the "Stations heard directly by..." section. Does this mean my iGating is not working, or just that the sending stations are getting into the server via another means? Directly to the internet or via a different iGate?

Most likely Option 2. As I-gates go, YAAC is very slow, because its prime focus is to get the information on the screen for use by the human operator. So, if any other (non-YAAC) I-gate heard the same signal, it will probably get it to the APRS-IS backbone faster, and the backbone discards duplicates coming in from other I-gates.

If you want to test your I-gate with aprs.fi, it has to I-gate a signal that no other I-gate could hear (say, an HT on minimum transmit power using rubber duck antenna or worse that is next to your I-gate's receive antenna).

Also, ensure your own I-gate's beacons are making it to the Internet directly from your own Internet connection. That confirms your Internet link is working.

Hope that helps.
