Yes.  The archive is now compressed, in spite of the extension:

    /bin/csh -cf /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -t -h localhost -n 
24 -s \* . | /bin/gzip > /data/NAS-Mount-MaxBackups/offsite/localhost.24.tar.raw

The extension name is hardcoded too.  In my earlier reply I said:

    You might also want to change the value of compext
    when compression is on.

Currently in bin/BackupPC_archiveStart:

    compext     => '.raw',
