Mic-E Format Packets Cause Massive Tag Value Increase #20

Closed kb1lqc closed 7 years ago

kb1lqc commented 7 years ago

Summary

Mic-E format packets can send data in the destination address ("TO") which aprs2influxdb currently creates tags from. This isn't good since that would increase the tag values substantially for each station. This slows the server down.
