[aprssig] APRS routing strategies

[hasan schiers]

Larry, N0BKB and I have tested your approach and it works. Thanks! Of course 
we used IA instead of your GA in your example.

We have also confirmed that the alias list in ui-view32 appears to be nearly 
unlimited. We have put WIDE7-7 through 7-2 and 6-6 through 6-2 and 5-5 
through 5-2 and 4-4 through 4-2 in the alias box of ui-view32 digipeater 
setup and it works! We are now fully trapped and can add more if need be.

p.s., RELAY will remain supported in Iowa. We are telling mobiles to use the 
path:

RELAY,WIDE2-2

and home stations: WIDE2-2


Thanks again for the note. 73

...hasan, N0AN
