[aprssig] Symbol set revisions

[Eric Christensen]

I'll have to check what symbols the D700s and D7As actually decode and 
show on the screen.  Any symbol that the radio doesn't have in the 
memory will just show on the screen as /v or whatever the actual symbol 
designator is.

I'll see if I can get the symbols from the radio later this evening.
