Yea, it's part of the ST_DIRECT fixes that I did.

We need to keep these igate stations in a different category from RF
stations, as we don't want to be igating messages to RF for these
stations as they don't exist there.

I can look at the code again w.r.t. these 3rd-party packets.  Most
of the relevant code checks for that and doesn't process it past
that stage.  Just need to snag the path and store it in the record.
I assume we want the RF portion of the path and not the tcp/ip path
that's in the 3rd-party portion?  That way we'll be able to tell
what igate put it onto RF.
