Nothing shows on that page unless it was digipeated by ARISS* or RS0ISS* or so Bob

Hi everyone.
I've been trying to improve the effectiveness of the SDR iGate that I have listening on 145.825 and am finally seeing more packets.
Since duplicates don't show up on ariss.net, that explains why not all my received packets show up on the website. Just for my own education, I'll often compare what my iGate receives from the ISS or PSAT to what shows up on ariss.net to verify that mine are in fact duplicates.
Today on a PSAT pass I noticed that one of my received packets was a duplicate (which is fine) but the other packet that I received was also NOT on the website. So, now we're not talking about a duplicate - it didn't get accepted to the site for some other reason.
Here's the packet as I received it. I'm guessing that the issue is that it wasn't digipeated by a station ID of "ARISS*", but I'd like to know for sure. If anyone is really good with APRS in general or the APRS sat digipeaters in particular, I sure would appreciate hearing from you.
