[aprssig] Designating HOME Igates

[Greg Noneman]

I'm not sure whether UI-View supports "courtesy positions" either.  I  
remember messaging to a friend of mine in Phoenix a while back, and  
we noticed that my posits were not being sent through the local  
Phoenix IGate. The Phoenix IGate was running UI-View software.  I  
also checked this with another station back east that was using a UI- 
View IGate and had the same results.  It seems that either the  
courtesy positions aren't supported or that feature is configurable  
and wasn't selected.  Given the popularity of UI-View, there would  
seem to be a high probability of this feature not being supported in  
many areas.
