If dupe checking in aprsd is based on the history it maintains then yes, 
this is configurable (there's a configurable time limit on how much 
history it will maintain).  However, in the case of RIMiGate (aprsd on a 
bootable linux floppy) the amount of history you can store becomes a 
function of how much memory is in your system since everything is running 
off a ramdisk.
