Aaron,

Please update your config file!  The power and height parameters are 
invalid!  These parameters should use the standard APRS designations:

;;; For power, height, gain and dir, use the digits 0 thru 9:
;;;
;;;  DIGITS   0  1  2   3   4   5   6    7    8    9         Equation
;;;  -------------------------------------------------------------------
;;;  POWER    0, 1, 4,  9, 16, 25, 36,  49,  64,  81  watts  SQR(P)
;;;  HEIGHT  10,20,40, 80,160,320,640,1280,2560,5120  feet   LOG2(H/10)
;;;  GAIN     0, 1, 2,  3,  4,  5,  6,   7,   8,   9  dB
;;;  DIR      0,45,90,135,180,225,270, 315, 360,   .  deg    (D/45)
;;;
;;;  FOR EXAMPLE:
; power: 25W, height: 80ft, gain: 6dB, dir: 180 deg
;power=5
;height=3
;gain=6
;dir=4
