Just curious, who's running TCP/IP and APRS on the same channel?  Or
perhaps you have an MKISS TNC and so have multiple ports/radios tied
to the same serial interface?

For some places in Europe I've heard it's accepted to run APRS
alongside other protocols, and for non-144.39 frequencies it's just
fine in the U.S. and Canda.  I'd be wary of running connected mode
packets or even unconnected mode TCP packets on the main APRS
frequency.  You're liable to get shot by the locals.
