[aprssig] Universal digi path

[Robert Bruninga]

John,
thanks for the update on NC digis.

I think we are finally starting to see some
improvement with this new arrangement.  In MD,
I no longer see many of the digis in Southern
VA and NC up here like before.  But there are still 
two that I see most of the time still running 4
hop paths of WIDE's and TRACES fromn NC.

Eventually, I guess they will get the word.
We only see them about once an hour,
so it is no big deal really.  But just something
to fix eventually.

thanks
Bob

Just to let you know that the digi that covers the outer banks does support WIDEn-N and SSn-N but is having some antenna problems. A local Igate also  supports RELAY and, WIDE1-1. If you go far south on the outer banks there is no APRS coverage. Also the digis that had WIDEn-N removed it has been put back in.
