Subj: Configure callsign on APRX

I have recently set up an HF APRS iGate on Linux using soundmodem with APRX.
I have configured multiple decoders in the sounds modem, spaced 50Hz apart,
to increase the chance of picking up off-frequency beacons. Each soundmodem
channel results in a separate linux AX25 device, which requires its own
callsign. I put my real callsign on the centre decoder, which is also used 
for Tx, but since all the other decoders are Rx-only, I used bogus internal
callsigns to avoid eating up my SSIDs. However, it seems that when APRX 
posts beacons onto APRS-IS, it uses the callsign of the interface concerned,
rather than the main callsign of the iGate. Does anyone know if it is possible
in APRX to override the interface callsigns and force APRX to use a single
iGate callsign for all packets gated into APRS-IS?
