Satellite EOS-7 (A55BTN) answers the packet 'Fm DL7NDR to CQ via ARISS' by 'DL7NDR>CQ,A55BTN*,ARISS*'.
EOS-7 always inserts his own callsign (A55BTN) and sets the h bit on both callsign.
This should be shown by a * after ARISS -AND- after A55BTN as it is using SoundModem.
The current behaviour of Direwolf is to show the * only after ARISS.

Direwolf shows asterisk only after one digipeater callsign even also second digipeater callsign has h bit set

I see DL7NDR created PR 530. I've been using that PR with paracon (https://github.com/mfncooper/paracon) in multiple unproto-based nets and it's working as expected. It would be great to get this update into a release.

Thank you for your feedback.
You are confusing two different things.

The first image has the standard TNC-2 monitoring format, where only the LAST "used" (h bit set) address is marked with *.
See "Understanding APRS Packets" in https://how.aprs.works .

UZ7HO SoundModem has its own, very different, format, not the standard TNC-2 Monitoring format.
It has * for all used addresses.

Please see most recent comment in Issue 530.
