APRSD

Hi there
I have set up a soundmodem on my woody gw server and hooked up the mic input to spkr output of radio ie no tx capability at all. The idea is that the radio listenss on a VHF voice repeater and accepts aprs such as pic-e packets appended to voice transmissions. Eventually I would like to do this on HF but ya gotta start small 8*) By doing sethdlc sm0 I can see the packets from my pic-e being received and decoded. 
I cannot figure exactly what the server is doing with them.
I have observed some of my incoming tnc packets on findu.com eventually.the latency is huge. Same if I log in with UIView. I cannot see them on any of my ports including 14579 or 14580 or in any of the logs. I have attached a copy of my aprsd.conf file for comments and suggestions for improvement. Ports are at http://barrett.waus.net:14579 and http://barrett.waus.net:14580 

cheers from the  keg

#aprsd 2.1.2 server configuration file
#
#This file is read ONCE on server startup.
#You must restart aprsd for changes to take effect.
#eg: /etc/rc.d/init.d/aprsd.init stop (then start)
#
#Lines starting with "#" are comments and are ignored
#Key words such as "mycall" and "maxusers" are NOT case sensitive.
#MyCall is the same as mycall.
#
#*** There is no error checking so be careful ******

#Servercall is the ax25 source call used in packets
#sent from the server to Internet users. (9 chars max)
#Note: Does not go out on the air.

#MyCall will be over written by the MYCALL string in INIT.TNC
