I believe if it is heard by the TNC at all (doesn't have to be
first?) the flag gets set.  Xastir treats RF-heard stations as a
higher priority than INET-heard stations for this, so if both flags
are set I think it assumes it's RF.

You might have some filtering turned on in your INET interface(s).

You might not have global igating and per-interface igating turned
on.

You might not have a passcode entered on the per-interface
properties dialog.
